This project was initiated as part of the LFX Fall 2025 mentorship program at OpenCost and development is ongoing.

OpenCost is evolving. As Kubernetes environments grow in complexity with pods being recreated, names being reused, and resources constantly shifting, the need for a more robust, scalable data model has become clear. Today, we're excited to introduce KubeModel, the foundation of OpenCost's Data Model 2.0, designed to bring precision, efficiency, and reliability to Kubernetes cost tracking.

I wouldn't have imagined spending an entire summer working on integration tests for OpenCost after watching a KubeCon video. By cosmic karma, I came across a mentorship under the Linux Foundation for writing Integration tests for OpenCosts Enterprise readiness. I spent my first few hours frantically reading OpenCost docs to deploy the demo in my local environment and draft my application.
