Business Case:
While developing my website’s admin dashboard, I aimed to monitor my cloud server usage more effectively. This project automates billing and server monitoring, providing real-time insights into server costs and technical specifications. It allows me to manage and track usage data without manual checks, streamlining my workflow.
Technical Solution:
I developed a Python package that integrates with the Digital Ocean API to extract critical billing and server information, including month-to-date usage, balances, and last invoice details. The solution features a YAML configuration file for flexible settings, a logging package for tracking activity, and a clear project structure, ensuring ease of use and maintainability.
