Summary

Infracost has reached significant milestones, now supporting over 100 AWS and Google resources and surpassing 100 members in its community Slack channel. The latest version, v0.8.6, introduces several enhancements, including support for AWS EC2 Reserved Instances, enabling users to perform what-if analyses and estimate monthly costs by defining instance parameters. A new integration with Jenkins allows users to view cost differences and set build failure thresholds based on cost estimates, adding a financial safety layer to CI/CD pipelines. Users can customize the output of cost breakdowns with the new --fields flag to tailor the display of cost data, and the usage file now supports array wildcards, simplifying configurations for resource arrays. Additionally, Infracost has added support for new cloud resources such as AWS Redshift and improved CPU-credit usage parameters for T2, T3, and T4 instances, enhancing its capabilities for cost estimation and tracking.
