Cloud Cost Management Tools with AWS Marketplace

Use vendor-supplied tags to improve transparency around your underlying cost drivers and allocate costs across your business units or cost centers. Independent Software Vendors (ISV) can now apply tags to software purchased in AWS Marketplace. Try out AWS Marketplace Vendor Metered Tagging and set up your unique cost and budget reports, so you can stay on top of your third-party software spend and make the right decisions for your business.

Identify, gain visibility into, and track AWS Marketplace AMI software usage and spend with EC2 tags.  You can use tags to categorize, allocate, and perform cost reporting on AWS Marketplace usage-based AMI spend. Existing and new Amazon EC2 instance tags will now automatically populate against corresponding AWS Marketplace AMI usage.

AWS Budgets allows you to set custom budgets to track your cost and usage from the simplest to the most complex use cases. With AWS Budgets, you can choose to be alerted by email or SNS notification when actual or forecasted cost and usage exceed your budget threshold, or when your actual RI and Savings Plans' utilization or coverage drops below your desired threshold.
