AWS Estate Configuration
Cloud Estate Design
When preparing for your FinOps Center installation, it's important to consider the design elements related to both your Cloud Estate and the AWS account for your FinOps Center installation.
Aligned with the Multi-Account Strategy, FinOps Center is designed to facilitate the management of your AWS Cloud Estate through the Delegated Admin Account. A Delegated Admin Account may already be created and configured in your Cloud Estate as you set up various AWS Management and Security services like Security Hub and IAM Identity Center.
FinOps Center utilizes the Cost and Usage Data Export report created in the Management Account and replicated to the Delegated Admin. It was designed to work alongside the Cloud Intelligence Dashboard framework, which must be installed prior to the FinOps Center installation.
To subscribe to the FinOps Center, the subscription must be initiated and installed from the Designated Admin Account through the AWS Marketplace.
