Monitor GPU power consumption costs across projects, create automated cost reports, and provide recommendations for budget optimization to finance and engineering teams.

Workflow Steps

1

Grafana

Visualize GPU power costs

Create Grafana dashboards that combine GPU power consumption metrics with cloud billing APIs (AWS, GCP, or Azure) to show real-time cost per GPU hour and project-level spending.

2

Zapier

Export weekly cost data

Set up Zapier to automatically extract weekly GPU cost summaries from Grafana and format the data for reporting. Trigger exports every Monday morning with previous week's data.

3

Google Sheets

Generate cost analysis reports

Use Google Sheets formulas to analyze cost trends, calculate cost-per-project ratios, and identify the most expensive GPU workloads. Create pivot tables showing usage patterns and budget variance.

4

Gmail

Send optimization recommendations

Automatically email finance and engineering teams with cost reports and specific recommendations like consolidating workloads, using spot instances, or scheduling non-urgent jobs during off-peak hours.
