Excited to share my latest open-source project: KubeCost Guardian

After seeing how many DevOps teams struggle with Kubernetes cost visibility on Azure, I built a full-stack cost optimization platform from scratch.

𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗶𝘁 𝗱𝗼𝗲𝘀:
✅ Real-time AKS cluster monitoring via Azure SDK
✅ Cost breakdown per namespace, node, and pod
✅ AI-powered recommendations generated from actual cluster state
✅ One-click optimization actions
✅ JWT-secured dashboard with full REST API

𝗧𝗲𝗰𝗵 𝗦𝘁𝗮𝗰𝗸:
- React 18 + TypeScript + Vite
- Tailwind CSS + shadcn/ui + Recharts
- Node.js + Express + TypeScript
- Azure SDK (@azure/arm-containerservice)
- JWT Authentication + Azure Service Principal

𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗺𝗮𝗸𝗲𝘀 𝗶𝘁 𝗱𝗶𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗻𝘁:
Most cost tools show you generic estimates. KubeCost Guardian reads your actual VM size, node count, and cluster configuration to generate recommendations that are specific to your infrastructure not averages.
For example, if your cluster has only 2 nodes with no autoscaler enabled, it immediately flags the HA risk and calculates exactly how much you'd save by switching to Spot instances based on your actual VM size.

This project is fully open-source and built for the DevOps community.
