FOCUS column
CommitmentDiscountType
The provider’s own name for the kind of commitment discount, such as Reserved Instance, Savings Plan, Reservation or Committed Use Discount. It is provider-specific and preserved as such; CommitmentDiscountCategory carries the normalized view.
Example
AWS rows show “Savings Plan” or “Reserved Instance”; Azure rows show “Reservation”; Google Cloud rows show “Committed Use Discount”.
Where it comes from, per export
The export column that feeds CommitmentDiscountType in each format the platform ingests, and the transform applied. A format with no row does not carry the column; the value is then absent rather than guessed.
| Export | Source column | Transform |
|---|---|---|
| AWS Data Exports, FOCUS | CommitmentDiscountType | as is |
| Azure Cost Management, FOCUS export | CommitmentDiscountType | as is |
| Azure Cost Details (actual cost) | Not carried | — |
| Azure Cost Details (amortized cost) | Not carried | — |
| Google Cloud detailed billing export | Not carried | — |
How Runcost uses it
Runcost labels commitments with the provider’s term so procurement recognizes them, and groups by the category for cross-cloud coverage.
