Enable "Cost (Adjusted)" as a Configurable Metric for Anomaly Detection

Problem Statement: Currently, IBM Cloudability’s Anomaly Detection engine relies exclusively on the "Cost (Total)" metric. This creates significant operational noise, as billing artifacts like credits, refunds, and tax adjustments trigger false-po...

Enable Cloudability Anomaly Detection at the Account Level (Not just View Dependent)

Currently Cloudability Anomaly detection is tied to Views if an account isn't included in a View, no anomalies can be generated for it , creating blind spots in cost monitoring . This means new or unmapped accounts can accrue unexpected spend with...

Provide granularity anomaly alerts of individual job or script execution

Providing granular anomaly alerts for individual BigQuery jobs, SQL queries, or script executions would be very useful because the current alerting model tells teams that BigQuery spend spiked, but not always which exact execution caused it, who r...

Remove Service-Level Anomalies when Segment Level Anomaly is detected

Prior to nine months ago the Anomaly feature removed Service Level anomalies when a Segment Level anomaly was detected at the same service, account, date and usage type. The cost delta observed in the duplicates is either nil or within a few dolla...

Preserve First Detection Timestamp and Mitigate Historical Spike Bias in Anomaly Detection

Currently, Cloudability’s anomaly detection algorithm re-evaluates and regenerates anomalies for the previous seven days each time it runs. As a result, anomalies identified earlier may change or disappear over time as new cost data becomes availa...
