FinOps Intelligence
FinOps Intelligence runs cost-reduction recommendations and machine-learning analyses live against the Apache AGE Knowledge Graph. It is independent of the rule-based recommendation engine — refreshing the page re-runs the underlying graph queries — and organizes its analyses into tabs.
Analyses
-
Overview — Headline KPIs, savings by category, and the top actions
-
Resource clusters — Groups of related resources
-
Cost-reduction analysis — Where and how to cut spend
-
Cost trend — Spend over time
-
ML: Anomaly detection — Statistically unusual spend
-
ML: Criticality (graph centrality) — The most connected, high-impact resources
-
Breakdowns — Spend broken down across dimensions
-
Top & orphan resources — Highest spenders and unattached resources
-
ML: Cost forecast — Projected future spend
-
Reservation candidates — Steady-state usage worth committing
-
ML: Spend spikes — Detected spikes in spend
Best Practices
- Refresh for current data — Each visit re-runs the analyses against the live graph; refresh after a sync
- Start on Overview — The top actions summarize the highest-impact opportunities
- Corroborate with Recommendations — Use it alongside the rule-based Recommendations for a complete picture
