AWS Services Mapping

Overview

Mapping updates

Because cloud providers consistently and rapidly update their service offerings, the mappings created and maintained by Apptio can become out-of-date. To address this dynamic environment, Apptio updates the mapping files monthly. The action you need to take depends on whether you use the Multicloud Connector:

• Multicloud Connector. To automate the ingestion of cloud billing, ATUM mapping is performed in the Apptio cloud billing pre-processor. The mapping files live in a central location and mapping occurs before the bill makes it into the customer CBM environment. If ATUM mapping gaps occur, no action on your part is necessary. Instead, Apptio identifies the gaps, fills them, then updates the mapping file to ensure that those gaps are eliminated from your environment.
• AWS Connector. If you use the legacy AWS Connector, ATUM mappings continue to take place in CBM via the Cloud Service Provider Lookup dataset, into which you need to append the AWS Service Mapping file. The mapping file can either be updated automatically via the AWS legacy connector or by manually overwriting the dataset with mapping file.

To update the mapping file:

1. Right-click on the file attachment below, then click Save Link (or Target) As.
2. Navigate to the place where you want to save the file, then click Save.
3. Unzip and open the .cvs file in a suitable application, such as Microsoft Excel.
4. Select the file for the ATUM version you want.
5. Log in to Apptio TBM Studio.
6. In the Project Explorer, navigate to Tables > AWS Service Mapping
7. Check out the AWS Service Mapping file and overwrite it with the updated .csv file.

The mapping file is updated frequently. Refer to this article for the most current content release.

Mapping gaps

If you are an AWS user and you encounter mapping gaps, please email a list of those gaps to Apptio at cloudmapping@apptio.com. We will do our best to fill the gaps identified in the next mapping update release. For your email, please export and attache the ATUM Mapping Quality report (in the Maintenance report collection), and include the following information for every Cloud Service Provider line item with a blank Subtower field:

• Provider
• Product
• Item
• Procedure
• Cost (optional, but helpful to understand impact of the gaps)

Automated mapping for ATUM 2.1 and 3.0

As of April 2019, CBM was updated to support the automated mapping of cloud provider services to ATUM classifications. CBM can map public cloud provider services to ATUM 1.0, 2.0, 2.1, and 3.0, depending on your organization’s requirements.
