Allocations

Group and allocate costs using your own categories

Assign cloud spend to business-relevant categories—by team, environment, app, or customer—to gain clarity, drive accountability, and improve cost control

Overview

Allocations, as part of DoiT Cloud Intelligence™, make every dollar accountable—even when tagging breaks down.

Use Allocations to map cloud costs to how your business operates using fallback logic, shared cost splitting, and flexible grouping across AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud. Finance teams get accurate, trusted data for reporting, chargebacks, and budget enforcement—without relying on perfect tags.

Make every dollar
accountable

Most cost allocation tools depend on tags alone. With DoiT Allocations, solve the enterprise-wide challenge of mapping cloud costs to business context with fallback logic, multi-source grouping, and shared spend visibility. Teams get accurate reporting, even when tagging breaks down.

Group spend your way—no rigid tagging required

Define allocation rules based on how your business actually runs—not how your cloud provider bills you. Group by team, service, shared resource, or any custom combination across AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud. No rigid hierarchy or format required.

Fill the gaps tags leave behind

Inconsistent or missing tags are no longer blockers. Allocations uses fallback logic across labels, accounts, services, and usage metadata—so teams get complete, trusted views of spend, even when cost data is messy or incomplete.

Break down shared costs
with precision

Split shared charges like enterprise support fees or egress traffic across multiple teams or projects. Allocations gives you granular control over how shared spend is distributed—no more “miscellaneous” buckets.

Track unallocated spend
in real time

See exactly what portion of your bill remains unallocated—and why. Allocations surfaces gaps proactively so you can fix logic, update rules, or fill in missing metadata before it impacts reporting or budget enforcement.

Built-in to DoiT—no silos, no spreadsheets

Allocations is natively integrated across the platform, powering Budgets, Alerts, Analytics, and more. It works seamlessly with DataHub to tie cost data to business metrics like revenue or customer counts—for more meaningful, business-aligned views. No more spreadsheets or syncing between disconnected tools. Every report, widget, and policy uses the same allocation logic—automatically and consistently.

The cost
accountability gap

Enterprises can’t afford cloud spend they can’t explain. Yet native tools make it hard to fully allocate costs—especially when tagging is inconsistent, ownership is blurred from shared services, or data lives across multiple clouds.

Cloud structure doesn’t match
business reporting

Learn more

Cloud bills are organized by tags, accounts, or projects—not by how your business operates. This disconnect makes it difficult to report costs by team, product, or environment.

Shared and unallocated costs
create blind spots

Learn more

Shared services like enterprise support fees or egress traffic often span multiple teams but show up as single charges. Without a way to break these down, large portions of spend go unattributed.

Tagging is hard to get right, and even harder to keep right

Duplicate keys, missing tags, and inconsistent naming conventions limit visibility. Without strong governance, even well-tagged environments become unreliable. This undermines trust in the accuracy of reports, budgets, and alerts, and makes it harder to drive cost accountability.

"Previously, we couldn’t factor cost as part of the decision-making process—as allocations were missing. DoiT Cloud Intelligence was a hidden treasure. Now, we accurately chart the costs of each path we consider to take. Since working with DoiT, we have saved 25% of our operational costs, even as our business operations have grown. "

Antonio David Fernandez Reyes, CTO at Bdeo Moralis

"Unexplainable cost increases used to take me hours to investigate. With DoiT, I can do that in less than 30 min thanks to their great report and analytics capabilities. Not only that, it also drastically reduced my personal time spent analyzing our monthly cloud cost. "

Stefan Britting, Lead Software Engineer at everstox

"DoiT has been a great partner to work with thanks to their expansive technology solution. With Allocations, we get in-depth insight into how the different teams across our organization are consuming cloud resources, along with the ability to optimize that usage through alerting, budgeting, identifying savings opportunities, and more."
