On the Archera Cost Explorer, we break out cost information as reported by the AWS APIs. Confusingly, these APIs collect a number of disparate, ancillary usage charges from EC2 into a category called "EC2-Other", which for some workloads can be large.
Under the "EC2-Other" umbrella the following costs are combined:
EBS:VolumeUsage.gp2 ($)
EBS:SnapshotUsage ($)
CPUCredits:t2/t3 ($)
NatGateway-Hours ($)
DataTransfer-Regional-Bytes ($)
ElasticIP:IdleAddress ($)
NatGateway-Bytes ($)
REGION1-REGION2-AWS-Out-Bytes ($)
REGION1-REGION2-AWS-In-Bytes ($)
Others
Essentially, these are the usage costs commonly associated with EC2 usage such as snapshots, CPU Credits, Data Transfer fees, etc.
To get further details on these individual costs, you can use the Segment Explorer "Group By" functionality. Select "Group By" and change to "Usage Type".
Next, select the services you want to collect information on. For example, you can look at all the Instance Type costs for a more granular breakdown.
