🚀 Quick Start

Installation

# Install from source
git clone https://github.com/openfinops/openfinops.git
cd openfinops
pip install -e .

# Or with all features
pip install -e ".[all]"

# Or specific cloud providers
pip install -e ".[aws,azure,gcp]"

Basic Usage

from openfinops.observability import ObservabilityHub
from openfinops.observability import LLMObservabilityHub

# Initialize observability
hub = ObservabilityHub()
llm_hub = LLMObservabilityHub()

# Register training cluster
llm_hub.register_training_cluster(
    cluster_name="gpu-cluster-1",
    nodes=["node-1", "node-2"]
)

# Track training metrics
llm_hub.track_training_metrics(
    model_id="gpt-custom",
    epoch=1,
    step=100,
    loss=0.5,
    gpu_memory_usage=8000
)

# Get cost summary
cost_summary = hub.get_cost_summary()
print(f"Total spend: ${cost_summary['total']}")

Running the Dashboard

# Start the web dashboard
openfinops-dashboard

# Or with custom port
openfinops-dashboard --port 8080

# Access at http://localhost:8080
