Understand usage and cost

Data ingestion

DoiT platform supports ingesting data from various sources, enabling organizations to create a complete and contextual dataset for a comprehensive view of their cloud expenditures.

  • Cloud billing data: Ingest cost and usage data of cloud providers such as AWS, Google Cloud, and Azure.

  • Cost and usage data of third-party solutions: Ingest cost and usage data of SaaS/PaaS providers such as Databricks, Datadog, generative AI models, and Snowflake.

  • DataHub: Ingest third-party cost, usage, and metric-based data through APIs or direct CSV uploads, and integrate the data into a single, unified cost control and attribution platform.

Cloud Analytics

Cloud Analytics enriches and organizes data. It allows you to gather all the required information, normalize the data, make it available for review, and circulate it to relevant personas.

  • Reports: Get instant visibility and gain insights into your cloud usage and spending at all levels.

  • Allocations: Group cloud resources based on your business aspects, segment data collected for a specific metric, and encourage teams to take ownership of their cloud usage by appropriate cost allocation.

Anomaly management

Quantify business value

This domain connects the usage and cost data with the business value it creates, helping ensure value is transparent and within expectations.

  • Budgets: Set budgets and configure alert thresholds to track actual cloud spend against planned spend.

  • Metrics: Measure key performance indicators in your organization when reporting on the cost and usage of cloud environments.

  • Forecast cloud costs: Use your historical data to predict the future cloud spend. Accurate forecasting helps you align resource allocation to other FinOps capabilities and drives informed business decisions.

  • Commitment Manager: Visualize and track your progress towards the committed goal to take full advantage of spend-based commitment discounts.

  • Quota monitoring (Google Cloud, AWS): Stay on top of cloud quotas with proactive monitoring. Get notified when you're approaching quota limits.

Optimize usage and cost

This domain helps organizations improve cloud efficiency and achieve more from their cloud investment.

  • Insights: A unified recommendation service that surfaces cost-optimization, security, performance, and more recommendations across your clouds.

  • Cloud Diagrams: Provide actionable visibility into an organization's AWS cloud infrastructure and help customers understand their cloud footprint.

  • PerfectScale for Kubernetes: Rightsize your Kubernetes environments with autonomous actions.

  • PerfectScale for Spot: Proactively monitor AWS Auto-Scaling Groups and replace On-Demand EC2 instances with Spot Instances.

  • Flexsave for Compute: Automate the process of managing commitments and optimize cloud-compute discounts for AWS.

  • Alerts: Get notified of user-defined events or conditions in your cloud environment. Facilitate proactive cost management and optimal resource utilization.

Manage the FinOps practice

This domain aims at effective FinOps operation and the enablement of the whole organization.

Billing and invoicing

  • Assets: Self-service management of assets (licenses and subscriptions) across clouds and third-party SaaS/PaaS solutions.

  • Billing Profiles: Manage your billing account, payment method, and invoice settings.

  • Invoices: View detailed records of cloud usage and costs during a specific billing period across cloud platforms.

  • Invoice Bucketing: Create custom buckets for asset assignments. This is especially useful if you have different cost centers with different assets and want to bill them separately.

Identity and access management

  • Roles and permissions: Implement role-based access control (RBAC) to regulate user access to DoiT features.

  • Single Sign-On (SSO): Provide a streamlined and secure authentication process, reducing the need for multiple login credentials and simplifying user management.

  • Organizations: Establish decentralized section management by creating organizations for teams to mirror your organizational structure within the DoiT console, and provide a tightly scoped Cloud Analytics experience for teams.

Sharing and collaboration

  • CloudFlow: A GenAI-powered, no-code FinOps workflow solution that connects your existing IT functions with critical FinOps metrics and streamlines financial operations and decision-making.

  • Threads: Integrates with your IT Service Management (ITSM) tools such as Jira to facilitate interactions between interconnected disciplines.

  • Zapier integration: Automates your workflows.

  • Notification: Send notifications to Slack channels, Microsoft Teams, or emails.

FinOps education and enablement

Access DoiT's services

DoiT console

The DoiT console is a web application with a graphical user interface that serves as a centralized place for you to interact with DoiT's products and services. With its intuitive design, the DoiT console makes it easy to run reports, view dashboards, and use various cloud management features.

DoiT platform API

The DoiT platform API provides programmatic access to DoiT's extensive features. It allows you to integrate existing systems or applications with the platform, enhancing your ability to maintain security, control costs, and ensure governance of your cloud estate.

Visit DoiT Developer Hub for comprehensive guides and documentation about our API.

DoiT MCP server

The DoiT Model Context Protocol (MCP) server integrates DoiT Cloud Intelligence and AI tools that support SSE (Server-Sent Events) or STDIO (Standard Input/Output).

You can connect to the DoiT MCP server and ask about spending spikes, service outages, or billing anomalies in plain language and get instant, data-driven insights from your actual cloud environment.
