👨🍳 Chef's Best Practices
Master the art of carbon emissions collection with these proven techniques from the CloudCostChefs kitchen.
Start Small, Scale Smart
Begin with a single compartment and monthly granularity to test authentication and service availability before scaling to enterprise-wide carbon data collection.
Pro Tip: Like testing a new recipe with a small portion first, validate your setup with limited scope before expanding to full production collection.
Monthly Automation Schedule
Schedule monthly runs on the 5th to ensure data availability for the previous month. Carbon data typically has processing delays.
Implementation: Use cron jobs or task schedulers with OCI config file authentication for automated reporting.
Choose Appropriate Granularity
Use monthly granularity for trend analysis and executive reporting. Reserve daily granularity for detailed optimization analysis.
Performance: Monthly reports are faster and more suitable for dashboard consumption and trend analysis.
Monitor and Review Errors
The script provides detailed error messages with troubleshooting guidance. Review error logs regularly and address permission or service issues.
Error Handling: Common issues include API limits, permission errors, and data availability delays.
