The GCP CUD decision kit.

Committed Use Discounts are the largest lever on most Google Cloud bills and the easiest to oversize. This kit gives you a buyer side model for sizing coverage to a defensible forecast, so you capture the discount without carrying commitments you cannot use.

A short decision brief with a worked table. Independent and free. We take zero provider commissions.
