    > As part of the AWS Cost Management suite, AWS Cost Anomaly Detection is integrated with AWS Cost Explorer

    > https://aws.amazon.com/aws-cost-management/pricing/

    > The Cost Explorer Hourly and Resource level granularity allows you to access hourly granularity for the past 14 days and resource level granularity for EC2 instances. The cost is $0.01 per 1,000 UsageRecords month. UsageRecords are defined as one line of usage. For example, one EC2 instance running for 24 hours will generate 24 distinct usage records at the hourly granularity.

    Life is good for Amazon, when they can get their customers to pay extra to see exactly why they're paying so much.
