Azure Amortization
We have enhanced the amortized cost option functionality to include support for Azure. This update allows users to view their Azure reservation costs as monthly and daily amortized costs, including the detailed distribution of costs for each recipient workload. As reminder, amortization refers to the process of distributing one-time reservation costs across the billing period affected by that cost, allowing users to view their costs in accrual-based accounting instead of cash-based accounting. This option is available across various cost-related functionalities such as Cost Dashboard, Budget, Alert, and Chargeback.
Azure Savings Plan
The Savings Plan Utilization page has been enhanced to include support for Azure Savings Plan. This update enables users to view the combined utilization rate of both AWS and Azure Savings Plans that they have purchased, providing valuable analysis and insights into their overall investments in Savings Plans. By leveraging this feature, users can identify opportunities for optimization and assess the effectiveness of their Savings Plan usage, allowing them to further optimize their usage and achieve maximum cost savings.
Azure Coverage
We have enhanced the Commitments Coverage page to include support for Azure Reserved Instance and Savings Plan. With this update, users can view the combined coverage of both AWS and Azure Reserved Instances and Savings Plans, providing a comprehensive overview and valuable insights into their overall investments in these committed resource purchases. This level of visibility also gives users the ability to identify opportunities for further optimization strategy and maximize their cost savings.
Datacenter Datastore Metrics
We have added support for datastore-related metrics in the resource details panel. This enhancement provides users with more detailed information about their datastore resources specifically, allowing them to gain valuable insights regarding their datastore usage and performance. By leveraging this feature, users can identify any potential issues and take necessary measures to optimize their datastore resources and ensure they are running efficiently.
Partner Sign-up Page
To better support our partners, we have introduced a new sign-up page and flow that allows them to perform registration on behalf of their clients. This new feature is especially useful for partners who manage multiple clients and want to streamline the registration process. With this new sign-up page, partners can use their company email address and specify their client's company domain name to register, which means that partners can now also perform some initial setup on behalf of their clients, such as setting up teams, inviting more users, etc.
