Services
Today, AWS Billing and Cost Management (BCM) announces support for the Detected Anomalies widget in BCM Dashboards. You can now review cost anomalies alongside cost and usage, budgets, cost efficiency, and reports for Savings Plans and Reserved Instance coverage and utilization. This provides a unified view of your spending, commitments, and cost anomalies in a single, tailored dashboard. The Detected Anomalies widget displays the number of anomalies detected and their total cost impact relative to your month-to-date spend, giving you immediate context on each anomaly's scale. For each anomaly, you can review the cost impact, root cause, and duration. Choose a look-back period of 30, 60, or 90 days, and filter by severity, service, account, and region so that each dashboard shows the anomalies most relevant to that account. By adding one or more Detected Anomalies widget to a BCM Dashboard, finance teams and cloud administrators can monitor anomalies from their existing cost management workflows. The widget links directly to the AWS Cost Anomaly Detection console so you can easily investigate an anomaly and record your assessment. It is fully integrated with dashboard exports and can be included in scheduled email reports or downloaded as a CSV or PDF for offline analysis. It is also included with cross-account dashboard sharing. The Detected Anomalies widget for BCM Dashboards is available in all commercial AWS Regions at no additional charge.
