What is the enhanced billing platform?

The enhanced billing platform is a suite of new features designed to help administrators understand and manage GitHub spend for their enterprise. Benefits of the new platform include:

• Cost allocation - create cost centers to allocate spend to different Azure subscriptions
• Spend transparency - view usage for organizations, repositories, products, cost centers, and SKUs by hour, day, month, or year
• Improved control - set budgets to limit spending and configure alerts to stay informed of budget utilization

Hi @gmondello, I noticed the bullet on cost centers being billed to different Azure Subs. Do you know if we'll be able to target specific Resource Groups within a single subscription?

[gmondello]

hi @NinoCapo that's not possible today, but is on our radar. No firm commitments for when, though.
