Custom Discounts and Enterprise Discount Programs (EDP)

Edit online

Cloudability supports custom discounts and Enterprise Discount Programs (EDP) from Cloud Service Providers (CSP) such as AWS, Azure, GCP, and OCI. These custom discounts and pricing adjustments are reflected in several capabilities, including reporting and cost analysis, rightsizing, commitments, and workload planning.

Cloudability has two Cost Metrics for reporting considering custom pricing:

  • Cost (Adjusted) built from the Cost (Total) metric.
  • Cost (Adjusted Amortized) built from the Cost (Amortized) metric.

These metrics adjust the figures for pricing rules and are available to Cloudability customers with custom pricing module enabled.

Rightsizing allows you to use:

  • On-Demand Cost
  • Effective Cost

If your organization has enabled custom pricing in Cloudability, the relevant custom rates are applied to the cost basis calculations.

Both Effective and On-demand cost basis calculations use custom/ EDP pricing.

Workload Planning supports custom pricing by default. For organizations without an agreement with vendors, Workload Planning defaults to Retail pricing.
