Office Hours: Starburst Console’s Unified Cost, Usage, and Billing Visibility

Platform costs climb fast once AI workloads enter the mix, and when the bill moves it’s rarely obvious which cluster or which decision is behind it. Most tools can show you the numbers. Starburst Console is the new admin experience built to make sense of them, and to tell you what to do next.

In this Office Hours, Tanya Sinha walks through how Console brings billing, usage, and telemetry into one place, then applies built-in intelligence to turn that data into clear, actionable insight, so you spend less time digging and more time acting.

In this session, you’ll see how Console helps you:

• Understand your total spend and what’s actually driving it
• Drill from environment-level cost down to the individual cluster
• Turn raw usage into tuned recommendations for a healthier, better-run platform
• Surface the configuration and utilization issues that quietly inflate your bill

We’ll also give a look at where Console is headed next, from proactive alerts to catching the table-health issues that drive up compute.
