4.12 Features: Show Me The Money!

Hi!

This is a message to share the latest post from our blog.

In 4.12 we have introduced showback features. This toolset generates cost reports that can be integrated with chargeback and billing platforms.

Now each VM Template can optionally define a cost, in undefined units. The cost is defined as cost per cpu per hour, and cost per memory MB per hour. There is also a default cost that can be applied to all VM Templates.

OpenNebula will then calculate monthly reports that are nicely presented to both the administrators and the end users.

And, of course, the raw data can also be retrieved in xml, json or csv from the command line. For more information, go to the 4.12 development documentation.

Do you know if there is any WHMCS module for OpenNebula or did you develop one? If yes, please PM me or actually just write here :smile:

Thank you!

Not that I’m aware of, sorry.
