Cost Allocation Data for Amazon ECS

0

Hi, I am currently using CUR to try and create dashboards to manage our spend. I understand that it is possible to enable Split Cost Allocation Data for Amazon ECS data in my CUR. I am not sure how this is enabled and how it works, I don't see the option in my account. Thanks

Hi Julian, Only regular and payer accounts have access to Cost Management preferences and can opt into Split Cost Allocation Data. It can take up to 24 hours for the data to be visible in the CUR.

With Split Cost Allocation Data for Amazon ECS you can allocate the cost of your EC2 instances to your containerized workloads running on these instances. Split Cost Allocation Data for Amazon ECS generates container-level costs by analyzing each container’s Amazon EC2 instance resource consumption based on the price of the instance and the percentage of CPU and memory resources consumed by the containers running on the instance.

Please refer to this doc: https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws-cloud-financial-management/la-improve-cost-visibility-of-containerized-applications-with-aws-split-cost-allocation-data-for-ecs-and-batch-jobs/

  • To add to this - Split Cost Allocation Data (SCAD) for ECS can be enabled in CUR from the Payer account, if this is where CUR is set up. You'd need to Edit the CUR settings, and tick the box in the settings to enable the feature (similarly how you enable resource IDs in the report settings). Note that for the feature to reflect properly in CUR, it's important that tagging strategy is generally in place for ECS. For example, that you're tagging your clusters, services, and tasks. And for example, you could have tag population from task definitions down to individual tasks.
