Hi Everyone,

We have an all cloud infrastructure in OCI and we are receiving cloud usage and billing data via the cloudability cdi module in tbm studio.

The requirement is to map the cloud cost to individual infra components ( VMs, DBs, storage etc.) . To perform this, we need inventory details from Oracle Cloud to showcase other attributes associated with an infra component.

OCI portal only provides inventory on a daily basis and not at a monthly level.  Downloading daily and appending to create a monthly file is not a sustainable solution. 

I am hoping if  cloudability cdi / cloudability has a feature to append these inventory files and send over to tbm studio as a monthly data like it does with CUR reports from CSPs? Or is there any other way to solve the problem ? 

Thanks in advance.

@Jenny Franklin @Guillermo Cuadrado @Andrew Midgley @Rene Norskov Need your guidance on this please.

Regards,

Pranav

Hello, @Pranav Pathak.

There was a similar thread some weeks ago (link).

Like there, if you can get an extract of the OCI portal onto a local file, you can create a Datalink connector to load that consumption data automatically to CT.

Another option might be the REST connector, possibly on a local Datalink agent. I haven't tried this, though. I use REST connectors from Python, and then the procedure I describe in the previous sentence.

What @Guillermo Cuadrado said 😉👍
