AWS launches a new tool to help you optimize your EC2 resources
EC2 Resource Optimization Recommendations is an AWS EC2 feature that does exactly what the name promises. The resource optimization tool reviews EC2 usage and provides personalized recommendations to find idle and underutilized instances. This is accomplished using usage history, CloudWatch metrics, and existing reservations. It’s not flashy, it’s not especially exciting, but it may just save you and your company a good amount of money (and maybe that’ll get you that raise you’ve been hoping for).
