  • Publication number: 20210027393
    Abstract: In one embodiment, a method includes storing a cost assigned to a physical computing device in a storage device. The physical computing device is found in a physical infrastructure of a data center. The method determines an instantiation of a virtual machine in a virtual infrastructure. Information for a provisioning of the virtual machine with the physical computing device in the physical infrastructure of the data center is then received. The cost assigned to the physical computing device from the storage device is determined where the cost is used to determine a charge for the virtual machine based on usage of the physical computing device.
