Is it feasible to use focus converter for other SAAS product billing data like MongoDB?

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Other than providers you have mentioned we have some SAAS products also in use so we need all billing data in focus schema.

Describe the solution you'd like
Will it take less effort to use focus converter for other billing data (Not a cloud provider which you mentioned in readme )to convert to focus schema?

Additional context
Did anyone done it earlier ?
Is there any documentation for this to use focus converter wisely?

FOCUS is an working in progress spec, it's intended to be used by any finops team in any environment so I should say yes, it's possible to use focus for MongoAtlas, Redis Cloud, etc.

But since it's still in progress it will take a while.

We are on the look out for same data from SaaS providers so we can determine the rulesets needed. If anyone is willing to donate some of their data even privately please let us know.

@mike-finopsorg to pick up the discussion on donating some data, is [email protected] a good contact for that? My org has an initiative with some SaaS and Private Cloud solutions that we are trying to standardize in the FOCUS format. I can reference this issue if that helps. I am also curious if you have seen or heard anyone doing any SaaS or Private Cloud FOCUS use cases successfully? Thanks!
