Hi everyone,<p>I&#x27;m a Co-Founder of Vantage. Today we are launching &quot;The Cloud Cost Handbook&quot; which can be found at <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;handbook.vantage.sh&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;handbook.vantage.sh&#x2F;</a> - a set of guides and best practices related to cloud costs for developers, engineering leaders and finance counterparts. We&#x27;re hoping to distill complex cloud cost terms and concepts into a set of &quot;plain english&quot; guides that anyone can access.<p>From speaking with our customers and community we&#x27;ve found that cloud cost knowledge is typically &quot;tribal knowledge&quot; held by a few key people at an organization but not well known amongst broader community of developers.<p>We&#x27;re still early and we&#x27;re looking for contributions and support (feel free to give the repo a star!) to build this up over time - please let us know what you think!

This looks really cool! I know how painful it can be to manage costs in the cloud so it&#x27;s great that this is available as a free to use resource.<p>We also recently launched an open-source multi-cloud CLI for doing high-level governance in AWS, GCP &amp; Azure.<p>Reading the part about tags in the handbook, it might be useful for some to use our CLI for improving your tagging strategy. Check it out here: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;meshcloud&#x2F;collie-cli&#x2F;wiki#identifying-inconsistencies-in-the-use-of-tags" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;meshcloud&#x2F;collie-cli&#x2F;wiki#identifying-inc...</a>
