Sync Oomnitza with AWS EC2 to visualize data about the EC2 reserved instances such as fixed and recurring costs for regions.
Before you start
Create an integration user
To easily find the records that are uploaded to Oomnitza, it's best practice to create a dedicated user account for each integration. This will make it easier for you to retrieve the records that are uploaded to Oomnitza from the vendor application.
Configure AWS and Oomnitza to use direct role assumption (DRA)
You can use DRA, a single credential, to access multiple accounts or a single account.
You must complete the configuration of AWS and Oomnitza to create the DRA credential record. When created, you can use the single credential to access AWS accounts. You use the same credential for all the DRA supported AWS integrations that you use to sync data with Oomnitza.
See DRA integrations: Overview.
Required information
In the Integration details section, when you add the AWS integration, you enter a space-separated list of regions.
See the table in the Region Availability section in Regions, Availability, Zones, and Local Zones. You enter the region value such as us-east-1.
