incident-cost-calculator

Read-onlyIdempotent

Use this when a user asks what an outage or incident cost, or wants to calculate the financial impact of downtime. Takes hourly revenue, downtime duration, and affected percentage. Returns revenue impact, engineering cost, and total incident cost in dollars.
