Dashboards

Dashboards provide a centralized workspace for monitoring cloud costs, AI usage, infrastructure efficiency, savings opportunities, and operational insights. Instead of switching between different modules, you can consolidate key metrics into a single view tailored to your organization's needs.

Dashboard V2 enables you to build fully customizable dashboards by combining widgets from multiple OneLens modules. Whether you're tracking cloud spend, monitoring AI costs, analyzing Kubernetes efficiency, or reviewing optimization opportunities, dashboards provide a unified view for faster decision-making.

With Dashboard V2, you can:

  • Create custom dashboards from scratch

  • Build widgets using a guided Query Builder or Simple Widget Creator

  • Monitor data across multiple OneLens modules

  • Apply dashboard-wide filters and time ranges

  • Share dashboards with your team

  • Start quickly using pre-built dashboards


Dashboard Types

OneLens supports two types of dashboards.

Custom Dashboards

Custom dashboards allow you to build dashboards specific to your organization's reporting requirements. You decide which widgets to add, how they are visualized, and how they are arranged.

Custom dashboards are commonly used for:

  • Executive cloud cost reporting

  • FinOps monitoring

  • Engineering operations

  • AI Cost & Usage monitoring

  • Kubernetes cost visibility

  • Organization-specific KPIs

Pre-built Dashboards

Pre-built dashboards are ready-to-use dashboard templates designed around common cloud services and optimization scenarios. They require minimal setup and help you get started quickly with standard reporting.

Examples include:

  • EC2 Cost

  • S3 Cost

  • CloudWatch Cost

  • RDS Cost

  • Kubernetes Cost Dashboard

  • Kubernetes Idle Cost Dashboard

You can use a pre-built dashboard as-is or customize it further by creating your own dashboard and adding additional widgets.
