Databricks Genie budgets: Wait, the compute it spins up to run code isn't tracked at all?
Hey folks, I work on Databricks implementations at Abilytics and have been looking into Genie Code cost controls recently. I’m running into a frustrating blind spot with the compute side. The budgets work well for tracking Genie usage, but when Genie Code writes and runs code or triggers warehouse queries, that compute is billed separately and doesn’t seem to have a clear link back to the user or Genie request that caused it. The token usage is easy to track, while the warehouse or cluster cost just appears as normal compute. I’m also seeing some differences between the budget page and "system.billing.usage", which I understand can happen because of reporting delays, but it makes month end reconciliation harder. Has anyone found a clean way to attribute Genie triggered compute back to a specific user or team without manually piecing together AI Gateway logs and compute activity? I’d be interested to hear how others are handling this.
