The first thing that comes to my mind is the need for having a currency value in the Y-axis. Is this doable? |
|
Suggestion: While it is good to see the trend , showing the information of on-going month's usage cost / on-going day's usage cost would benefit the users, i think, which could be represented as a Single-stat / metric panel. |
This is discussed earlier and currently we cannot add currency to the Y-axis. Even the Azure Billing integration dashboard doesn't include details related to the currency. When making changes to the Azure Billing integration dashboard I will check for some alternative ways to represent. |

Do you mean adding one more metric panel to show the overall cost for the selected time? Can we take this in a separate ticket, WDYT? |

Any specific reason why we went from bar_stacked to line? Generally i observe stacked bar chart to represent cost and usage details.

When we use the line chart with line interpolation to smooth this looks nice when compared to bar chart. Its also useful to represent to flow of cost.

Pros and cons for both.
Bar char: pros - you can see the daily cost. cons - you don't see how the fluctuations throughout the day
line chart: pros - you can see the daily fluctuations. cons - harder to convert this into a single daily number
I think either one is fine as long as we can have an additional widget which is for the total cost for the selected time period. Bonus points if we add an average daily cost for the selected time period.

The API provides the data on a daily basis and for every 24 hours. We also would not be able to get average daily costs as well. So I think we can make it as a bar chart itself.
I have made couple of changes.
- The chart names changed to
Daily usagefromOverall usage. - Added two new charts to show the total costs and total costs breakdown by models.
Let me know if there is any comments. I will update and commit the changes.

Thank Muthu. Agree that it makes sense to use bar charts if we have a 24 hour granularity. COuple of comments/questions:
- For total costs we show 3 numbers after the decimal point. If it's a large number (larger than 0.009) we might want to show only 2 digits after the decimal point. However if we need to account for very small numbers (eg 0.009) then showing more numbers after the decimal point would make sense
- For total costs - what is the unit? Dollars? Yen?
- It's not clear what is the name of the second widget (the one to the right of the "Total cost" widget). Is there a way to make it more obvious what it is?
- The bar chart widgets - they seem to have two parts - I think it's because of the vertical bar separating the months of March and April but it could also be easily interpreted as two widgets. Do we need to have this vertical bar?
- The daily usage widgets - what units are those in? The first one says "EUR" but I would expect the unit to the shown somewhere close to the name of what this unit applies to (the y axis). ALso, is the other daily usage widget also in EUR?
- If my bill is in USD will I see the USD currency instead of the EUR currency on the dashboard?

@daniela-elastic - Please find my updates,
-
For total costs - what is the unit? Dollars? Yen?
This is the currency associated with the billing account. I have provided a breakdown by costs to identify the currency in the bar chart.
Do we need to also include the currency in Total costs as well?
we cannot do this for the charts which is grouped by model.

It's not clear what is the name of the second widget (the one to the right of the "Total cost" widget). Is there a way to make it more obvious what it is?
I have modified the name to
Daily usage costsand we already have the description(i icon) -

The charts can be converted from
stackedchart toun-stackedso that the separation line will disappear. -
The daily usage widgets - what units are those in? The first one says "EUR" but I would expect the unit to the shown somewhere close to the name of what this unit applies to (the y axis). ALso, is the other daily usage widget also in EUR?
Yes, all the data shown in the dashboard are in EUR. This isn't doable to show in Y-axis, This has been raised by @agithomas in the previous comment as well.
-
If my bill is in USD will I see the USD currency instead of the EUR currency on the dashboard?
Yes, The billing currency associated with the Azure account will be showed in dashboard.
I do not mind. |
|
I also don't mind splitting the work in two tickets - the current one for the trend and another one for the totals |
|
we don't need a second panel for billing. we can add everything billing related to the same link panel |
No, we are not going to create one more dashboard for billing. |
Proposed commit message
This PR changes the panel to display the cost over the time and updates the decimal places by 5 to show the actual costs which is lower.
