Cost Allocation & Showback Platform · View 08 of 22 · 3 · Structure
The rule
- Billing credentials are scoped to export read only and cannot reach the workloads themselves
- A platform that measured cost and also changed resources would be disbelieved by the teams it measures
- The GL posting is the only integration that moves real money, and it reads frozen statements only
Failure behaviour per surface
- A missing export publishes the period as incomplete with the provider named
- A drifted export schema quarantines the partition and blocks that provider for the period
- A stale driver feed suppresses the unit cost rather than carrying the last value forward
Accepted clutter
- The route checker reports two label-proximity warnings on this view; the edges and labels are correct and the alternative is an unlabelled boundary crossing
