Vantage Launches Time Bounds for Virtual Tags
Blog post from Vantage
Vantage has introduced Time Bounds for Virtual Tag configurations, allowing customers to specify start and end dates for when a Virtual Tag should apply, which helps reflect changes in cost responsibilities due to reorganizations or project lifecycles. This feature enables more accurate cost allocations by aligning Virtual Tags with the evolving structure of a business, overcoming previous limitations where only the current structure could be represented. Users can now create tag rules that apply to specific time ranges, ensuring resources like a shared Kubernetes cluster are allocated correctly throughout their lifecycle. This functionality can be accessed via the Vantage console or API, and it supports both nested Virtual Tags and different allocation models by period, with no additional cost to use.
