> If you’re trying to understand how much a new deployment on AWS is costing you, and find ways to optimize that, you don’t care about the total budget of the account, or having some auto shutoff. You need detailed, real-time information from Amazon, which I’ve never seen in the console.
No one who is working on this cares about real-time by the second data - the daily cost is enough.

OK, what are you trying to say? If my response above did not answer the question, can you give me a one sentence summary of the point?

Alternatively, “The billing UI and billing infrastructure is a major weakness of AWS when it comes to helping people understand what their usage will cost.” You can clearly see this is true by the large number of people who complain about it.
- sam0x17 6y agoIf you're working with, say ML workloads, daily billing is laughably broad. Some workloads run for an hour or two, and cost a ton.
