Knowing infrastructure costs is critical to validate a business case, but there is no way to assign AWS infrastructure costs generated by connected Devices directly to IoT Things representing them.
To solve that challenge:
- Create a Billing Group with desired Tags,
- Add IoT Things to that Billing Group.
AWS generates a cost allocation report with usage and costs aggregated by Tags.
Use Tags representing business units and applications to organize your expenses.
Utilize Billing Groups to measure fees generated by Devices using dimensions like:
- connectivity
- messaging
- remote actions
