Rancher: Kubernetes Master Class: Kubernetes Cost Allocation & Visibility feat. Kubecost

Measuring costs in Kubernetes environments is complex. Applications and their resource needs are often dynamic. Teams commonly share resources and make independent decisions that are difficult to monitor.

In this Master Class, we’ll look at different approaches and best practices for implementing cost monitoring and management in Kubernetes-centric environments. We’ll also look at Kubecost, which provides an open source approach for ensuring consistent and accurate visibility across all Kubernetes workloads.

What We'll Cover:

• Implementing Kubernetes cost allocation in complex environments
• Best practices for making cost data actionable
• How to join in-cluster and out-of-cluster costs
• Using Kubecost with Rancher, Grafana and Prometheus
