Subscriptions and Payments

  • Cost reports are generated every six hours.
  • Daily usage reports are automatically generated.
  • Generate custom cost analysis reports and save them.
  • Estimate future usage based on past usage data.

Budgets and Forecasting

Budgets allow you to set thresholds for your spending on OCI. You'll get notifications if you approach a spending threshold.

  • Customize notifications and get alerts on your actual or forecasted spending.
  • Set your budgets using meaningful dimensions such as tags, compartments, and tenancies.

Cost Estimator

OCI Cost Estimator helps you estimate your monthly usage and costs for OCI services before you commit.

Tenancy Management

Organization Management enables you to build, scale, and govern your multitenancy environment. The tenancy explorer and Domain Management help you govern your footprint on OCI.

  • Manage service restrictions, allowable regions, and tags across the organization.
  • Centrally manage cost and governance as the parent tenancy.

Use tagging to add metadata to resources. Use tags to organize and list resources based on your business needs.

  • Create, manage, and attach tag namespaces, tag keys, and default tags.
  • Use tags to track costs and manage access.

Control User Access

Use Quotas in OCI to control and enforce a limit on resource consumption within your tenancy for a specific compartment. Create policies to enable access for cost management.

  • Stay in control of your budget by setting up service quotas.
  • Set a policy with simple declarative language that’s similar to the identity and access management policy language.
  • Allocate resources with a high level of flexibility to optimize your budget.

What resource groups have the greatest impact on cost? Where can I optimize costs? How can I prevent unauthorized spending?
