Cloud Estate

When preparing for your FinOps Center installation, it's important to consider the design aspects concerning both your Cloud Estate and the AWS Account of your FinOps Center installation. 

Aligned with the Multi-Account Strategy, FinOps Center is designed to facilitate the management of your AWS Cloud Estate via the Delegated Admin Account. A Delegated Admin account may already be created and configured in your Cloud Estate while you setup various AWS Management and Security services like Security Hub. 

FinOps Center uses the Cost and Usage report that is created in the Management Account and replicated to the Delegated Admin. FinOps Center was designed to work in conjunction with the CUDOS framework which is a requirement to be installed prior to the FinOps Center installation. 

To subscript to FinOps Center, you the subscription needs to be initiated and installed from the Designated Admin Account.
