how to find out resources details charged by SKU item

[learn]

My bills are increasing significantly each month due to below sku items:

Network Internet Data Transfer Out from Hong Kong to Apac(Excluding Korea and Indonesia), Compute Engine, E7D1-5044-4A91

Cloud Firestore Internet Data Transfer Out from APAC to APAC, App Engine, CF48-7219-8480

Operations, Google Service Control, F31D-9645-41B5

Please could you tell me howto dig out those resources inside above items.

By SKU description, I cannot find out what resource are included for above item. NO doc mention about this.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,

Once you have identified the specific SKU and project where you have the cost, you could use Cloud Asset Inventory to review what resources are deployed in that project to help you identify which resources in particular will be generating that cost, see: https://cloud.google.com/asset-inventory/docs/overview

To give some light on the items you raise, Compute Engine and Firestore are both data egress costs - i.e. a VM or your application that is using Firestore is now sending more and more data externally.  So you would need to dig deeper to understand if that traffic is expected based on user requests, or perhaps it might be malicious, in which case you might need to take steps to prevent it.

Operations, Google Service Control, F31D-9645-41B5 - this one can be a little harder to understand, but I'm assuming it relates to Cloud Endpoints service, if you look at the pricing page here: https://cloud.google.com/endpoints/pricing

At the bottom it references calls to the Service Control API, this has its own pricing on this page: https://cloud.google.com/service-infrastructure/pricing

So perhaps you have some services exposed on Cloud Endpoints running somewhere?

Hope that helps,

Alex
