Ops ledger
Lowest risk. Dense tables, muted surfaces, minimal motion. Best for finance review and recurring audits.
Request path attribution
Website hosting cost command deck
CloudFront metrics, request-path evidence, Kubernetes metadata, and optional billing reconciliation in one operational view.
CloudFront distribution cost estimates
Visible first-pass cost model from CloudWatch metrics. No logs, no CUR, no Kubecost required.
Showing audited sample metrics. Start local proxy and fetch for live CloudWatch values.
EKS per-domain allocation engine
Kubecost-free model using live pod/deployment labels, resource requests, replica-hours, node cost, and AWS tags.
domain EKS cost = cluster node cost × weighted(cpu request share, memory request share, pod runtime)
Real per-domain hosting costs
Loaded from live AWS Cost Explorer, CloudWatch, and EKS label collector.
Website hosting costs
Per-website breakdown from Kubecost + AWS + CloudFront
Network cost: Kubecost vs AWS actuals
Kubecost captures inter-pod traffic only. NAT/VPC/ELB costs must be added.
CUR / Kubecost reconciliation prototype
Billing truth versus Kubernetes allocation. Shows coverage, gap, and shared-cost pools.
No CUR. No Kubecost. Still accountable.
Request-path cost attribution graph
Coldwatch discovers each hosted website as a chain of billable AWS components: DNS, CDN, WAF, origin routing, ALB, Kubernetes, storage, database, and network egress. Every cost lane is marked as measured, allocated, inferred, or unknown.
Uses CloudWatch metrics through local proxy. No log import required.
Live request path
Observed from DNS, CloudFront configuration, browser network capture, AWS inventory, and Kubernetes metadata.
Billable component ledger
Source-free estimator lanes and confidence status.
Evidence drawer
Resource IDs and traffic evidence behind the selected site.
Instrumentation required for real cost
These telemetry feeds replace CUR/Kubecost and raise confidence from inferred to measured.
Coldwatch visual directions
Three controlled directions. Pick one, then consolidate.
