Information technology cost calculation in a software defined data center

摘要

The present disclosure is related to methods, systems, and machine-readable media for information technology (IT) cost calculation in a software defined data center. A cost of infrastructure IT objects in a software defined data center can be calculated. The infrastructure IT objects can be mapped to an IT service construct over time, during runtime of the infrastructure IT objects. A portion of the cost of the infrastructure IT objects can be allocated to the IT service construct according to the map. A non-infrastructure IT cost can be allocated to the IT service construct. A total cost of the IT service construct can be calculated based on the allocations.
