Year to date
Whether the annual number is still recoverable cannot be said yet: 3 month(s) of this fiscal year have no statement, so the spend so far is not all counted.

Each movement is attributed by the organisation's ownership rules (cloudledger rule): a tag, a linked account or a name pattern. What none of them claims is unowned, and that is the finding. The costed actions are not built yet.
Monthly report
Cloud spend in June 2026 was 46 480, 3.2% below the monthly budget of 48 000.
Not every earlier month of the year is on record here, so this report gives no year-to-date figure.
EC2 on demand, c6i.xlarge took 410 off the bill: team-data moved the nightly batch to spot. (on demand: the undiscounted hourly price; EC2: rented virtual servers.)
CloudWatch Logs ingestion took 240 off the bill: debug logging turned off in svc-orders.
S3 standard added 80; nothing in the data attributes it. (S3: file storage.)
Unowned spend is 6 050, 13% of the bill, spread across 55 resources carrying no team tag. It cannot be attributed to anyone, and it will appear in every report until the tags exist.
No forecast is made yet, so this report does not say where next month lands.
No costed actions are recorded for this account yet.
