v0.8.0

What’s Changed
Reply CMP v0.8.0 is a pivotal FinOps release: we extend multi‑cloud coverage to Google Cloud Platform and evolve the former Finances module into a full FinOps experience aligned to the Assess → Allocate → Analyze (Optimize / Monitor in preview) lifecycle. Cost allocation, organizational modeling, and analytics have been significantly re‑architected to enable scalable financial governance.
🚀 New Features
Google Cloud Platform Support (GCP): You can now onboard GCP projects alongside Azure subscriptions and AWS accounts. Discovery, cost ingestion (including BigQuery billing export), tagging, and connection‑level (unallocated) costs are unified in the multi‑cloud views.
Finances → FinOps Module Transformation: The module has been renamed and refactored around FinOps phases (Assess, Allocate, Analyze). Navigation and UI components updated accordingly.
Allocation Workspace: Cost allocation is now an explicit phase. Historical “groups” management has moved out of Discovery and into FinOps.
Organizational Hierarchies: Build a nested group tree that mirrors your internal organization (e.g. Company → Business Unit → Product → Team). Each node supports:
Owner assignment
Budget definition (periodic) with real‑time burn tracking
Environments & Projects Dimensions: Define reusable Environment (e.g. dev, qa, prod) and Project entities. These act as orthogonal allocation dimensions that you can combine with organizational hierarchy for richer slicing.
Advanced Allocation Mapping: Resources and connection-level costs can be mapped simultaneously to (Group Hierarchy + Environment + Project) enabling multi-dimensional accountability.
Enhanced Analyze Phase: Powerful analytical surface with:
Multiple grouping combinations (up to 2 concurrent: e.g. Group Level + Environment, Provider + Project, Tag + Resource Type)
Expanded filters: Providers, Connections, Categories, Custom Groups, Resource Types, Resource Names, Tags, Date Ranges
Granularity options: Daily, Weekly, Monthly plus Actual vs Amortized cost perspective
Connection-Level Cost visibility for all three clouds
Terminology & UI Refresh: Consistent FinOps language, updated badges, provider icons (now includes GCP), and phase progress indicators.
CMP Agent (formerly WelkinBot): Upgraded conversational assistant powered by MCP enabling natural language queries across resources, allocations, and costs.
🐛 Bug Fixes
Corrected occasional double counting of connection-level Azure charges in edge amortization scenarios.
Fixed AWS cost ingestion race condition causing intermittent day gaps.
