Hi all -
The good folks at SuperUser <http://superuser.openstack.org/> are
intrigued by this topic and interested in writing a feature. I've
compiled the feedback so far in this etherpad
<https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/Billing-Chargeback>. If there are any
final thoughts please free to add to it
<https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/Billing-Chargeback>.
If you have questions about the nature of the article or would like to
be contacted about the subject matter, please reach out to Allison Price
<mailto:[email protected]> or Nicole Martinelli

Thanks!

We’re using a combination of cASO
(https://caso.readthedocs.io/en/stable/) and some low level libvirt
fabric monitoring. The showback accounting reports are generated with
merging with other compute/storage usage across various systems
(HTCondor, SLURM, ...)
It would seem that those who needed solutions in the past found they
had to do them themselves. It would be interesting if there are
references of usage data/accounting/chargeback at scale with the
current project set but doing the re-evaluation would be an effort
which would need to be balanced versus just keeping the local solution
working.

So far it looks like everyone is using a homegrown solution. Is
anyone using an existing product/project?

Hey folks,
I'm curious what folks out there are using for chargeback/billing in
your OpenStack environment.
Are you doing any sort of chargeback (or showback)? Are you using (or
have you tried) CloudKitty? Or some other existing project? Have you
rolled your own instead?
I ask because I am helping out some folks get a handle on the
operational side of their existing OpenStack environment, and they are
interested in but have not yet deployed some sort of reporting
mechanism.
Thanks,
