Harness Cloud Cost Management
Cloud Cost Management for Engineers, by Engineers.
Overview
Harness Cloud Cost Management (CCM) is a module of the Harness software delivery platform that focuses on providing cost transparency and governance to engineering teams. It helps developers understand the cost impact of their code and infrastructure changes directly within their CI/CD pipelines. The tool provides detailed cost breakdowns, identifies anomalies, and helps optimize costs for cloud services and Kubernetes.
✨ Key Features
- Cost Visibility for Engineers (in context of CI/CD)
- Kubernetes Cost Management and Optimization
- Cloud Cost Anomaly Detection
- Budgeting and Governance
- Automated Cost Optimization (AutoStopping)
- Correlation of cost with deployments and changes
🎯 Key Differentiators
- Deep integration into the developer workflow and CI/CD pipeline.
- AutoStopping feature for automatically managing non-production resources.
- Focus on correlating cost data with engineering activities.
Unique Value: Empowers engineers to take ownership of cloud costs by providing them with visibility and automation directly in the tools they already use.
🎯 Use Cases (4)
✅ Best For
- Reducing costs of non-production environments significantly with AutoStopping.
- Providing engineers with the context to make cost-aware decisions.
