Read-only cost diagnostics and audits for Alibaba Cloud database products
(RDS, Redis, MongoDB, PolarDB, DTS, DBS, CDT): explain a high or spiking
DB bill with billing-item breakdowns and month-over-month anomaly
attribution, and run proactive audits of renewal/expiry risk, idle
instances, and optional paid features — never modifying any resource.
Triggers: "why is my database bill so high", "DB cost spike",
"database cost anomaly", "database bill surged",
"unexpected database charges", "unexplained database charge",
"don't know what feature is charging me", "RDS bill breakdown",
"billing item breakdown", "charged after instance deleted",
"released instance still billed", "monthly DB cost trend",
"cost increase root cause", "CDT bill",
"cost audit", "database cost audit", "idle database instance",
"idle instance still charging", "renewal lock", "about to expire",
"unexpected auto-renewal charge", "DMS charges", "DAS billing".
