Role and responsibilities
Versioned price cards per provider, model, region, unit and currency.
Data model
Tables (schema eai, every tenant table carries tenant_id uuid NOT NULL with an RLS policy on current_setting('app.tenant_id', true)::uuid): eai.usage_events, eai.price_cards, eai.fx_rates, eai.recon_imports, eai.audit_events.

SDK usage
Python (enterprise_ai):
from enterprise_ai import EnterpriseAI
client = EnterpriseAI(base_url="<control-plane-url>", api_key="eai_xxx_secret")
items = client.finops.list_price_cards()
TypeScript (@enterprise-ai/sdk):
import { EnterpriseAI } from "@enterprise-ai/sdk";
const eai = new EnterpriseAI({ baseUrl: "<control-plane-url>", apiKey: process.env.EAI_API_KEY });
const items = await eai.finops.priceCards.list();
Java (enterprise-ai-java):
EnterpriseAIClient client = EnterpriseAIClient.builder()
.baseUrl("<control-plane-url>")
.apiKey(System.getenv("EAI_API_KEY"))
.build();
var items = client.finops().listPriceCards();
Go (enterprise-ai-go):
client, _ := eai.NewClient(eai.WithBaseURL("<control-plane-url>"), eai.WithAPIKey(os.Getenv("EAI_API_KEY")))
items, err := client.FinOps.ListPriceCards(ctx)
Configuration
- Environment:
EAI_DATABASE_URL,EAI_OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT. - Helm values:
controlPlane.enabled,controlPlane.replicas,controlPlane.resources,controlPlane.config.
Security controls
- Authentication by OIDC JWT, tenant API key with scopes, or SPIFFE mTLS; tenant resolved from the credential, never from the body.
- Authorization through OpenFGA and OPA decisions; every mutation and decision writes a hash-chained
eai.audit_eventsrow. - Secrets never returned by the API; TLS everywhere; Cilium network policies restrict who can reach the service.
Observability
- Metrics:
eai_model_pricing_registry_requests_total,eai_model_pricing_registry_errors_total,eai_model_pricing_registry_latency_seconds(Prometheus). - Traces: OpenTelemetry spans
eai.finops.*with W3Ctraceparentpropagation, AI spans forwarded to Opik. - Audit actions:
finops.price_card.create,finops.price_card.retire,finops.reconciliation.run,policy.evaluate.
FinOps aspects
Operating cost is allocated per tenant and project through labels on Usage Events and Kubernetes resource requests; no direct per-call cost.
Failure modes and resilience
- Stateless replicas behind the API Gateway, PostgreSQL HA for state; readiness probe
GET /readyzremoves unhealthy pods. - External system unavailable: fail closed for security decisions, explicit error code, no silent bypass.
Standalone adoption (client of a client)
A client of a client can adopt this brick alone with the Python SDK sub-client client.finops (TS eai.finops, Java client.finops(), Go client.FinOps). Minimal deployment: Control Plane API + PostgreSQL + Keycloak (or API keys), the Control Plane loads every domain of services/control-plane/src/eai/domains; the optional chart components are switched off in deploy/helm/enterprise-ai/values.yaml (vllm.enabled, qdrant.enabled, nats.enabled, workers.enabled).
Acceptance tests
- A tenant cannot read or modify another tenant's resources (RLS test).
- Every mutation produces an audit event verifiable by
GET /v1/audit/verify. - Errors are returned in English and French according to
Accept-Language.
Audio, image, video, GPU and storage prices (LLM_-011)
eai.finops_media_prices (V137) keeps dated revisions per unit (audio_second, image, video_second, gpu_second, storage_gb_month), provider and resource, with their source. POST /v1/finops/media-costs/estimate applies the revision in force at the usage date and returns its provenance; without a revision the cost is null with status: unavailable and reason: price_unknown, never zero. Tests: tests/test_finops_media.py.
