IBM Kubecost vs. Think Exam

We have a Kubernetes cluster spread across multiple cloud providers, including AWS, Google, and Azure. Kubecost consolidates data from all the providers and gives us insights. So instead of jumping between individual dashboards, Kubecost shows everything in one place. It helps us in right-sizing the cluster, which directly saves us costs. Although it gives us cluster insights, we still need to take action manually. It also provides insight into the Kube cluster only, but actual costs depend on other components as well, including databases, storage, etc.

• I think there is room for improvement in IBM Kubecost if you Streamline IBM Kubecost more with AWS cost explorer

Our engineers liked the devops dashboard and the initial deployment was very fast which meant the cost-allocation data was available right after deployment which the team further customized and enhanced based on our needs. Version 3.0 fixed a lot of concerns with the backend responsiveness, especially when running heavy multi-cluster api calls

Among competitors, IBM Kubecost offers deeper insights into cluster metrics. It offers the highest data privacy, as the data stays in your private infrastructure. Although it can't provide Non-K8s cost insights, it still offers some insights based on tags, which is better than any other product.

• Given that we are going through a cloud transformation journey, IBM Kubecost has helped reduce the infra cost by up to 20% by detecting any wrong configuration early in the process
• It also helped us determine the idle and orphaned resources that we could cleanup to save costs
