Enhanced forecasting granularity in DoiT Cloud Analytics
DoiT Forecasting is now enhanced with the support of "Forecast per grouping" in addition to the "Total forecast".
Planning for future cloud spend just got easier and more granular. The forecasting capability in Cloud Analytics is now able to project future spend using the ‘Group by’ dimension for current and future months. By forecasting each ‘Group by’ dimension’s value, you’ll be able to:
- Help engineering teams set realistic hiring/expansion plans based on their infrastructure spend trajectory
- Track cost ratios between environments (e.g., dev should be 1/10th of prod) to ensure healthy spend allocation
- Surface zombie projects or accounts that should be flat/declining but show growth
Below is the "Forecast per grouping” view once enabled
To enable the “Forecast per grouping” feature, we have introduced a new configuration option within the Forecast settings. Here, you can choose between “Forecast per grouping” or “Total forecast.” After making your selection, simply apply the change and re-run the report to see the updated results.To learn more about Forecasting per grouping please refer to the Forecasting documentation in the Help Center.
