In EKS Fargate, how can you tag the costs related to Fargate?


We have an 'application' tag on our EKS cluster and fargate profile. We also have a k8s label 'application' on the pod. When we look in the cost explorer, the costs related to fargate (for example EU-Fargate-vCPU-Hours:perCPU (Hrs)) don't seem to be linked to the application tag.

Has anyone been able to link EKS fargate costs to a specific tag in cost explorer?


Solution

  • Kubernetes (EKS) tags are different from AWS native tags they don't get propagate to take advantage of cost allocation techniques. We hear this often from customer and it's something we are considering.
