Multi-VPS Docker Container Cost Calculator — Agent & Central Server Architecture.
| Container Cost is a Docker container cost allocation tool that calculates and monitors how much each container costs across one or many VPS instances. Deploy lightweight Go agents on each VPS — they push raw stats to a central server that computes costs using VPS config stored in the database. No local config needed on agents.
Perfect for chargeback, cost tracking, or finding which containers are the most expensive without SSH-ing into each server.

- Collect CPU/RAM stats from Docker socket
- Weighted cost allocation (CPU 50%, RAM 40%, Storage 10%)
- PostgreSQL storage with history tracking
- Frontend dashboard with Chart.js (doughnut, bar, line charts)
- Auth system (admin/engineer/management roles)
- Lightweight Go agent on each VPS (no Python, no local config needed)
- Agent pushes raw Docker stats (CPU%, RAM%) to central server
- Central server calculates costs using DB-stored VPS config (price, weights, specs)
- Per-VPS cost breakdown in a single dashboard
- VPS config managed from dashboard — update once, auto recalculates
- Agent auto-reconnect with health checks
- One-liner agent deployment via Docker
