FinOps reporting currently uses PowerBI based on a Microsoft Cost Management connector. This connector lacks a good level of support from Microsoft at times, so we want to build a robust mechanism of getting cost data from Azure to somewhere we can then point PowerBI at.
The connector currently grabs data from an Enterprise Account / Enrolment perspective (i.e. it grabs CFT/SDS/Crime/HMPPS/MOJ data currently).
Intended Outcome
Cost data is exported from Azure at Enterprise Account level and held in somewhere that is within HMCTS' control (e.g. storage account)
Data has a minimum daily refresh (hourly would be nice to have)
Solution is able to hold minimum 24 months of data
PowerBI (justice) is able to use the cost data source to provide its reports
Impact on Teams
None
Additional information
Bruce and Microsoft (Ragu) can be contacted for any questions or information needed on the PowerBI side of things.
