Getting started with Compute Budgets

Compute Budgets provides a mechanism to monitor and alert on your Compute Consumption Unit (CCU) usage. This helps you stay within your ideal usage limits and effectively manage costs. With Compute Budgets, you can:

• Proactively monitor costs: Move from a reactive to a proactive approach in budget management. This allows you to anticipate and address budget issues before they arise.

• Reduce manual effort: Minimize the manual work required to track and monitor compute usage. This enables you to focus on higher-value tasks.

• Improve confidence and adherence to budgets: Gain greater insights into your compute spend, enhancing your ability to adhere to budgets and effectively manage costs.

  重要

  Compute Budgets allows you to monitor and alert on your Compute Consumption Units (CCU) usage. It does not restrict or otherwise monitor consumption of CCUs.
