TCO benchmark

The benchmark compares the cost of running Filomena against a hosted AIOps quote over the same period and alert volume. It does not contain vendor price claims.

Use /v1/economics to obtain average input tokens, output tokens and investigation volume. Get infrastructure cost from the cluster billing source. Include the actual monthly time spent upgrading and operating Filomena. Put the current hosted platform and telemetry quote in a copy of benchmarks/tco/scenario.example.json.

The calculation is:

Filomena monthly TCO = infrastructure
                     + operations hours * engineering rate
                     + investigations * input tokens * input token rate
                     + investigations * output tokens * output token rate

Hosted monthly TCO   = platform quote
                     + telemetry or ingestion quote
                     + operations hours * engineering rate

Run:

./benchmarks/tco/calculate.py scenario.json report.md

Commit the input scenario beside any published report. Without the input and quote date, the comparison is marketing copy rather than a reproducible benchmark.
