Google Cloud Billing predicts future costs

Google has announced a new cost forecast feature for Google Cloud Billing. This feature makes it easier to see at a glance how your costs are trending and how much you are projected to spend. You can now forecast your end-of-month costs for whatever bucket of spend is important to you, from your entire billing account down to a single SKU in a single project.

If you’ve been asking questions like “How is my current month’s Google Cloud Platform (GCP) spending trending?”, “How much am I forecasted to spend this month based on historical trends?” or “Which GCP product or project is forecasted to cost me the most this month?”, you can now answer them. Just simply navigate to your account’s billing page in the GCP console and open the reports tab in the left-hand navigation bar.

To learn more about the cost forecast feature, go to the billing reports documentation.
