Amazon Bedrock now supports cost allocation by IAM user and role

Amazon Bedrock Cost Allocation by IAM Principal

Amazon Bedrock now supports cost allocation by IAM principal, such as IAM users and IAM roles, in AWS Cost and Usage Report 2.0 (CUR 2.0) and Cost Explorer. This enables customers to understand and attribute Bedrock model inference costs across users, teams, projects, and applications.

With this launch, customers can tag their IAM users and roles with attributes like team, project, or cost center, activate them as cost allocation tags, and analyze Bedrock model inference costs by the tags in Cost Explorer or at the line-item level in CUR 2.0. To get started, tag your IAM users and roles and activate them as cost allocation tags in the Billing and Cost Management console. Then create a CUR 2.0 data export and select "Include caller identity (IAM principal) allocation data" or filter by tags in Cost Explorer.

What to do

• Tag your IAM users and roles with attributes like team, project, or cost center.
• Activate them as cost allocation tags in the Billing and Cost Management console.
• Create a CUR 2.0 data export and select "Include caller identity (IAM principal) allocation data" or filter by tags in Cost Explorer.
