Cost and proportion of each billable item in the bill of the log topic: When doing cost optimization, you can choose different policies based on the proportions of the traffic cost and storage cost. If the traffic cost occupies a large proportion, you can reduce the amount of logs printed on the log collection client or filter out useless logs through data processing. If the storage cost occupies a large proportion, in addition to the above two methods, you can shorten the log storage duration.
Monthly cost trend in the bill of the log topic: The information can be used for year-on-year analysis to determine whether there is an abnormal sudden increase in the cost.
