OptCloud

Documentation

Connect your stack. Optimize with confidence.

Step-by-step guides for every cloud and tool OptCloud integrates with — how we connect, what permissions we need, what data we collect, and how to verify the integration.

Quickstart

Most teams are live with first recommendations the same day they connect a cloud account.

  1. 1
    Connect a cloud account

    Start with AWS, Azure, or GCP using a read-only role. Open the provider guide for exact IAM / Service Principal steps.

  2. 2
    Confirm least-privilege access

    Every connector is designed for read-only metadata and billing data — never application payloads or write access by default.

  3. 3
    Explore Cost Explorer & recommendations

    Once the first sync completes, open the dashboard to validate spend and review prioritized savings opportunities.

  4. 4
    Add data & observability sources

    Layer Kubernetes, Snowflake, Databricks, Datadog, or Oracle Cloud for a complete FinOps ledger.

Integrations

Detailed connection guides for every supported provider. Each page covers architecture, permissions, setup steps, and troubleshooting.

Amazon Web Services

AWS

Cloud

Connect AWS with a cross-account IAM role and Cost and Usage Report (CUR). OptCloud never needs your root credentials or write access.

Read guide
Microsoft Azure

Azure

Cloud

Connect Azure with a read-only Service Principal and Cost Management exports. OptCloud normalizes subscriptions and resource groups into one FinOps view.

Read guide
Google Cloud

GCP

Cloud

Connect Google Cloud via Billing Export to BigQuery and a read-only service account. OptCloud turns BigQuery billing tables into FinOps views and recommendations.

Read guide
Kubernetes

Kubernetes

Containers

Allocate shared cluster cost to namespaces, workloads, and labels across EKS, AKS, GKE, and self-managed clusters — then rightsizing pods and node pools together.

Read guide
Snowflake

Snowflake

Data

Ingest Snowflake warehouse and cloud-services cost from ACCOUNT_USAGE / ORGANIZATION_USAGE so data platform spend sits next to your cloud bill.

Read guide
Databricks

Databricks

Data

Pull Databricks billable usage so DBUs, jobs, and SQL warehouses are visible in the same FinOps workflows as your clouds.

Read guide
Datadog

Datadog

Observability

Ingest Datadog usage and cost so observability spend is governed with the same budgets, anomaly detection, and FinOps Agent workflows.

Read guide
Oracle Cloud

Oracle Cloud

Cloud

Connect Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) cost and usage so OCI tenancies appear in the same multi-cloud FinOps ledger.
