AWS Compute Optimizer now supports idle recommendations for six additional resource types

This article announces AWS Compute Optimizer's expansion to identify idle resources across six additional AWS service types, enabling better cost optimization.

• Idle detection now covers DynamoDB provisioned tables, ElastiCache, MemoryDB, DocumentDB, WorkSpaces, and SageMaker endpoints
• Analyzes service-specific signals like consumed capacity, cache hits, connections, and CPU utilization
• Customizable lookback periods based on workload characteristics
• Displays recommendations with utilization metrics and estimated savings in console
• Cross-account visibility through Cost Optimization Hub with de-duplicated savings

This expansion helps organizations identify unused resources and potential cost savings across more AWS services.
