Tekton Finops
Tekton is open-source software (Apache License 2.0). There is no commercial billing surface published by the Tekton project itself — there are no invoices, no metered usage charges, and no subscription fees attributable to Tekton. Operating costs flow entirely through the operator's own Kubernetes infrastructure providers (worker-node compute consumed by TaskRun/PipelineRun pods, persistent volumes for workspaces, image-registry storage, ingress, observability, and any cloud-side OCI registries used by Chains). Commercial managed offerings exist (Red Hat OpenShift Pipelines, IBM Cloud Continuous Delivery, Tekton via various cloud platforms) and have their own billing surfaces that should be profiled against the third-party vendor — not Tekton.
