About budgets in preparation for usage-based billing - Github Enterprise Cloud
Our company has never configured budgets for GitHub Copilot before. With the upcoming transition to usage-based billing, we are now trying to understand what types of budgets we should set up and what factors we should consider when defining appropriate budget limits.
Under the previous billing model, our Copilot costs were around $9k per month. Based on the billing preview tool, our projected costs under the new model would increase to approximately $14k USD per month.
We are mainly looking for guidance on:
- Which budget types are recommended (account-level, product-level, etc.)
- How organizations typically determine reasonable budget thresholds
- Best practices for monitoring and controlling usage
Additionally, I was hoping to configure user-level budgets to prevent a small number of users from consuming a disproportionate amount of AI credits from the shared pool, but it seems that user-level budget controls may not be available yet. Is this correct?
Thanks!
