Vantage Launches Kubernetes Support

Vantage has introduced a new feature that allows customers using AWS Elastic Kubernetes Services (EKS) on Business and Custom tiers to view service-level costs for their Kubernetes deployments. This feature provides detailed cost insights by integrating data from AWS Cost and Usage Reports, Container Insights, and EKS Service APIs, enabling users to see day-by-day accrued costs for each EKS service, as well as the cost of un-utilized cluster space for better resource allocation decisions. Previously, the cost breakdown was limited to the EKS control plane and EC2 nodes, but now users can see more granular cost data, enhancing visibility into specific Kubernetes services. While this feature is not available for the Starter or Pro tiers, it does not incur additional charges for Business and Custom tier users, although there may be AWS-related costs for CloudWatch Logs and Metrics. The feature is currently exclusive to Amazon EKS customers, with potential plans to expand support to other Kubernetes environments and ECS services.
