 ## Cost allocation rules
 
-With cost allocation rules, you can split the costs of shared services by moving costs between subscriptions, resource groups, and tags. Splitting costs is especially useful in scenarios where you have central subscriptions hosting shared infrastructure services used by different teams within your organization. Creating the right cost allocation rules ensures that the teams consuming the shared services get visibility into their portion of the costs. And, they can also be accountable for those costs.

 # View Kubernetes costs
 
-This article helps you view Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) cost in Microsoft Cost management. You use the following views to analyze your Kubernetes costs, which are available at the subscription scope.
+You can use the following views in Microsoft Cost Management to analyze the costs of your AKS (Azure Kubernetes Service) clusters, which are available at the subscription scope.
 
 - **Kubernetes clusters** – Shows aggregated costs of clusters in a subscription.
 - **Kubernetes namespaces** – Shows aggregated costs of namespaces for all clusters in a subscription.
 - **Kubernetes assets** – Shows costs of assets running within a cluster.
 
-Visibility into a Kubernetes cluster cost helps you identify opportunities for optimization. It also enables cost allocation to different teams running their applications on shared clusters in different namespaces.

 ## Prerequisites
 
-- You must enable AKS cost analysis on the cluster to view its costs. If you have multiple clusters running in a subscription, you must enable AKS cost analysis on every cluster. For more information about how to enable cost analysis for clusters, see [Azure Kubernetes Service cost analysis](/azure/aks/cost-analysis).
