I pulled the spend from Costory, broke it down by the dimensions that moved, and lined it up against your deploys and incidents.
What drove the increase
- EKS compute up $9,400/wk. The jump is concentrated in the data-platform team's EKS clusters in us-east-1 — node count roughly doubled starting Tuesday.
- Correlated with a deploy. Costory's event timeline shows a deploy event on Tuesday 09:14 that lines up with the step change, alongside a GPU autoscaling spike.
- Owner identified via tags. Allocated to team:data-platform, env:prod via your existing tags — no unallocated/orphaned spend in this delta.
Other movement
- Anthropic API +$1,200. Steady climb across the week, not anomalous — tracking with feature launch usage.
- Everything else flat. RDS, S3, and networking held within 2% of baseline.
What you can do with Costory
Trace any cost spike to its cause
Query unified AWS, GCP, Azure, and AI spend, then drill down by team, service, region, or tag and overlay deploys, metrics, and incidents to see exactly what changed and why.
Get guided cost investigations
Let the agent suggest the right group-bys, usage metrics, and next drill-downs so you reach the driver of a spend change without knowing Costory's data model by heart.
Stand up dashboards and alerts
Build cost dashboards, set anomaly and threshold alerts, log events, and schedule team reports so cost context lands in your workspace instead of waiting in a console.
