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.
