Combine multiple Metrics into one Report
Hello Team,
The customer is lacking the functionality to combine multiple Metrics into one report to get overall cost views quicker and easier.
At the moment, the customer needs to choose one specific Metric, and crate individual reports on that chosen Metric. The only way to get overview information on Savings, Amortized Cost, Amortized Savings. etc. is to bring those individual source reports to a Dashboard.
Suggestion:
Allow multiple Metrics to be included when creating a report for a better overview on specific costs. This would help to see all information on a specific Service for example, so all cost and savings aspects can be analyzed in the same place.
Kind Regards,

I would add to this since it could be good for multiple metrics as well as multiple ways to visualize that data.

I don't agree that we can do what I am describing here. I was actually talking about something like this:

This analysis can be done using Logarithmic scale, which can be enabled in all non-stacked charts using the hamburger menu at the top-right corner of the chart. Attached you can see an example breakdown for EC2 by Unit, which in Linear scale is hard to analyze like you describe. In the next attachment you see how the analysis can be done when Logarithmic scale is enabled.

Hi Team, when using a graphical display mode, would it be possible to use 2 different scales? For example, when displaying "Usage" metrics, 2 SKUs might have massive swings in quantity (think amount of GB-Mo for TimedStorage SKU and amount of Tier2 Requests for an S3 bucket). This creates graphs that are difficult to interpret if you want to analyse 2 SKUs at the same time. Other data viz platforms solve this by adopting 2 different scales (one referenced on the right side of the graph, the other on the left side of the graph). Would it be possible for cloud analytics? Thanks!
