Vantage monitors your connected providers and shows cost recommendations as your infrastructure evolves and changes. You can implement these recommendations to lower your bill.
Cost recommendations are currently available for AWS, Azure, GCP, Datadog, and Kubernetes.

​
Types of Recommendations

Your available recommendations depend on what services and resources are running in your account. In general, there are three types of recommendations:

Cloud-provider recommendations

Based on your connected providers, enriched in Vantage

Custom-built recommendations

Created by Vantage using proprietary analysis

Cross-provider recommendations

Recommends migrating to alternative providers

View Cost Recommendations

1
From the top navigation, click Recommendations.
2
The screen displays two tabs: Ready for Review and Archived.At the top of the page, a summary displays your total potential savings (shown as monthly and annual amounts) and the percentage of your previous month’s tracked spend that could be saved.In addition, you’ll see filters for Date Range, Account, Billing Account, Region, Provider, and Tag.
  • Select a filter and choose one or more options to filter the results.
  • Click Reset Filter on any filter dropdown to remove your current filter.
When you apply filters to create a specific view of recommendations, the URL updates to reflect those filters. You can share this URL with team members, and they will see the same filtered view when they access it.Recommendation categories are shown in a list format, with each category displaying:
  • The number of associated resources (Recommendation Count)
  • The total potential savings if you act on all resources for that recommendation
Financial commitment recommendations, such as AWS Savings Plans, AWS Reserved Instances, and Datadog Commitments, do not display recommendation counts since they are not based on individual resources.

​
View Recommendation Categories

For recommendation categories, you can take the following actions:
  • View individual resources: If a recommendation category includes multiple resources, click the category tile to expand and view details for each resource. Each resource shows the detection date, resource-specific savings, and a description of the recommended remediation action. Click a resource link to view its detailed Active Resource view.
When you navigate to an Active Resource Report from a filtered view of the Recommendations page, your filters are applied to the Active Resource view as well, with the exception of Date Detected filters. Note that Active Resource Reports do not respect the Archived status of recommendations, so all resources are shown regardless of whether they are archived.
  • View Resource Report: For recommendations with associated resources, the View Resource Report button is displayed on the recommendation category tile. Click this button to see a Resource Report that includes all affected resources. Specific remediation steps are provided at the top of the Resource Report in a recommendation card. This card contains a description of the recommendation and a remediation workflow, which can include CLI commands, links to provider console actions, a list of manual steps, and references to relevant Vantage blogs. Vantage also provides additional context on recommendation Resource Reports by displaying custom metadata columns relevant to the recommendation. CLI commands can be copied and run directly in your terminal to act on the recommendation.
  • View in Autopilot: For some recommendations (such as financial commitments, like Savings Plans, Reserved Instances, or cross-provider migration recommendations), the View in Autopilot button is displayed instead. Click this button to view the recommendation details in Autopilot.
Other recommendations may not display a button if they have no associated active resources and no Autopilot link. In these cases, the recommendation description may contain links to the Cloud Cost Handbook for additional information. You can also use the archive functionality to manage the recommendation.

​
Archive Recommendations

To archive recommendations, you have two options:
  • Archive an entire recommendation set: Click the Archive icon (arrow pointing down) at the end of the recommendation category tile. This archives all recommendations in that set (e.g., all identified Kubernetes Workload Rightsizing recommendations).
  • Archive a specific resource recommendation: Expand the recommendation category tile and click the Archive icon next to that resource.
Archived recommendations are moved to the Archived tab. Archived recommendations are excluded from the total savings potential displayed at the top of the Recommendations page. Only active recommendations contribute to the savings metrics.
You must be an Owner, Integration Owner, or Editor to archive recommendations. See the Role-Based Access Control documentation for more information about permissions.

​
Frequently Asked Questions

If you are currently on a trial, the specific recommendations are blurred; however, the total amount of potential savings is displayed. After you activate a Vantage subscription, these recommendations are fully visible. As you make changes to your infrastructure, the recommendations are automatically updated. Recommendations are refreshed once a day.
Recommendations are updated daily based on your resource usage patterns and configurations. The “Date Detected” field shows when each specific recommendation was first identified.
Date Detected reflects when Vantage first identified the specific recommendation type for a resource. The date remains unchanged if only the savings amount changes while the recommendation type stays the same. However, if the recommendation type changes (for example, from rightsizing to deletion), the Date Detected updates to reflect when the new recommendation was first detected.As an example, you have a GP3 EBS volume that receives a rightsizing recommendation on day 0. On day 1, the recommended throughput decreases, but it’s still a rightsizing recommendation, so the Date Detected remains day 0. On day 7, Vantage detects that this volume is now idle and recommends deletion instead. The Date Detected updates to day 7 to reflect when the deletion recommendation was first detected.
Vantage started tracking detection date for any recommendation that was not tracked previously. Examples of this include:
  • DynamoDB Provisioned Capacity Mode
  • EBS Generational Modernization
  • CloudWatch Log Retention
  • S3 Intelligent Tiering Recommendations
  • Azure Unattached Disk
  • Unused Datadog Metrics Each of these recommendations will have launch dates based on when Vantage added Date Detected to these resources in October 2025.
There is no limit to how long recommendations will be retained. As long as the recommendation is valid, it will be retained indefinitely.
If a recommendation is no longer valid, Vantage will remove it from the Recommendations page, regardless of whether it is a currently active recommendation or an archived recommendation.
Filtering recommendations helps you focus on specific subsets of your infrastructure. Use filters to:
  • Filter by Tag: Focus on recommendations for resources tagged with specific values, such as filtering by environment=production to see only production recommendations, or by team=engineering to view recommendations relevant to a specific team. This is particularly useful for organizations with multiple teams, projects, or environments, allowing you to prioritize recommendations based on business context.
  • Filter by Provider, Account, or Region: Narrow recommendations to specific cloud providers, accounts, or regions to align with your team’s responsibilities or focus areas.
  • Filter by Date Range: Review recommendations detected within a specific time period to track new optimization opportunities or review historical recommendations.
Combining multiple filters allows you to create highly targeted views of recommendations, making it easier to prioritize and act on cost optimization opportunities that are most relevant to your current needs.

Rightsizing Recommendations

If you have resources that are over-allocated in terms of vCPU and GB of RAM, you may be paying more than needed. Rightsizing recommendations can help you save significantly by identifying rightsizing opportunities and providing specific reasons to rightsize, such as over-provisioned CPU. Vantage supports rightsizing recommendations for EC2, RDS, EBS, ECS, Lambda, and Auto-Scaling Groups (ASGs). Rather than providing a single suggestion, Vantage shows several viable rightsizing options for a resource, each with projected savings and utilization tradeoffs. This allows teams to select the most appropriate option based on workload patterns and operational preferences. Each recommendation includes existing utilization metrics, up to three recommendations, potential savings, performance risk, migration effort, and projected CPU utilization. If you want memory metrics collected and displayed for EC2, AWS requires this to be collected via an agent, either a native CloudWatch Agent or supported third-party agent. To view a rightsizing recommendation:
1
On the Cost Recommendations screen, click View Resources to view each identified resource instance that is recommended for rightsizing.
2
Select a resource from the list.
3
The Active Resources screen is displayed. Select the Rightsizing tab. The tab includes recommended sizes for migration (e.g., “Migrate to m5.large”), the potential monthly savings, performance risk (0 being lowest, 4 being highest), migration effort (ranging from very low to very high), and projected CPU utilization.
4
Click Compare Pricing to explore an instance pricing comparison via ec2instances.info. This pricing comparison evaluates the current instance type used against the proposed instance type from the recommendation.

Unused Custom MetricsVantage identifies unused custom metrics that are no longer providing value to reduce observability costs. See the section below for details.

​
Unused Custom Metrics

Vantage identifies unused custom metrics that are no longer providing value to reduce observability costs. These recommendations help teams identify metrics that may have been created for projects that have ended or are no longer tied to dashboards, monitors, notebooks, or Service Level Objectives (SLOs). Vantage monitors custom metrics across connected Datadog accounts and surfaces metrics that are going unused with no required configuration changes. Vantage flags metrics with:
  • No queries in the past 30 days
  • No associations with dashboards, monitors, notebooks, or SLOs
Each unused custom metric is shown under Active Resources with metadata such as tags, creation date, and indexed volume before taking action.
1
From the Cost Recommendations screen, click View Resources next to the Datadog unused metrics recommendation to see each identified unused custom metric.
2
Select a metric from the list to view detailed information, including:
  • Metric name and description
  • Associated tags and metadata
  • Indexed volume and cost information
  • Whether the metric has been queried recently
  • Whether the metric is referenced by any dashboards, monitors, notebooks, or SLOs
3
Click the Metric Cleanup tab to see recommended actions for remediation.
Active Resource Recommendation screen with Unused Custom Metrics
Vantage calculates the associated cost and savings estimate for each metric by finding the proportion of the metric volume to all ingested volume, and applies that proportion to the ingested timeseries metric costs.
Understanding Datadog Custom Metrics BillingDatadog bills for custom metrics in two ways:
  • Ingested costs: You are billed for the data that is sent to Datadog.
  • Indexed costs: You are billed based on the average indexed volume over the billing period for a metric, which includes the number of unique tags associated with the metric.
Savings from removing unused metrics are based on indexed costs, meaning the metric is available for querying. It’s important to track metrics since users can easily add tags to metrics, which increases the indexed volume and associated costs.

​
Cloudflare Recommendations

Vantage provides cross-provider recommendations that suggest migrating from AWS services to Cloudflare to reduce costs. These recommendations are based on your actual usage and spending patterns. Click on the category below to view all available recommendation types.
Vantage identifies opportunities to migrate from AWS services to Cloudflare services that may offer better pricing models for specific use cases.
Recommendation TypeDescription
CloudFront to Cloudflare CDNVantage will identify when you have significant costs from AWS CloudFront and recommend migrating to Cloudflare CDN. Cloudflare offers self-service plans with flat-rate pricing (Free, $20/month, and $200/month) with no bandwidth caps rather than metered pricing. Customers who spend more than $200/month on CloudFront can cap their CDN delivery costs by switching to Cloudflare.
S3 to Cloudflare R2Vantage will identify when you have significant S3 egress costs and recommend migrating to Cloudflare R2. Cloudflare R2 offers zero egress fees and competitive storage pricing, making it an attractive alternative for workloads with high outbound data transfer.

​
Kubernetes Rightsizing Recommendations

Without proper resource allocation, Kubernetes clusters can become overprovisioned, leading to wasted resources and idle costs. Vantage provides Kubernetes rightsizing recommendations to help you identify affected resources. These recommendations are focused on managed workloads within Kubernetes clusters. For Kubernetes Node rightsizing recommendations, you can utilize the recommendations against the node types themselves, such as EC2 Rightsizing Recommendations, and filter for the Node Label within the Active Resource report of the recommendation.
For a full guide on understanding rightsizing and how to rightsize Kubernetes resources, see the following article in the Cloud Cost Handbook.

​
View Kubernetes Rightsizing Recommendations

Rightsizing recommendations require version 1.0.24 or later of the Vantage Kubernetes agent. See the Kubernetes agent documentation for information on how to upgrade the agent. Once the upgrade is complete, the agent will begin uploading the data needed to generate rightsizing recommendations. After the agent is upgraded or installed, recommendations will become available within 48 hours. This step is required to ensure there is enough data to make a valid recommendation. Historical data is not available before the agent upgrade, so it is recommended that you recognize cyclical resource usage patterns, such as a weekly spike when you first review recommendations.
1
From the Cost Recommendations screen, click View resources to view each identified Kubernetes workload that is recommended for rightsizing.
2
Select a workload from the list. The workload is displayed within the Active Resources screen.
3
Select the Rightsizing tab. A section for each container that’s identified for rightsizing is included.
  • Each recommendation includes a high-fidelity graph of CPU and RAM used within the container in the past month, the average and maximum usage for mCPU and memory, and recommendations for how to rightsize your configuration. The chart includes a per-day average usage. The table provides a 30-day average and 30-day average max usage.
mCPU refers to milliCPU, which is a fractional representation of CPU, where 1 CPU is equal to 1000 milliCPU. Current Configuration comes from the currently configured requests for the pod template within the controller spec. This is collected by the Kubernetes agent hourly and updated when the cost data is imported, roughly once per 24 hours.
  • The Potential Monthly Savings are also provided to indicate your estimated savings once these recommendations are implemented on your Kubernetes resources.

​
How Vantage Calculates Kubernetes Rightsizing Recommendations

Vantage takes the following steps to calculate Kubernetes rightsizing recommendations.
1

Identify controllers with low efficiency.

  • Controllers running below an efficiency level of 80% over the last 30 days are identified.
  • Efficiency is calculated as the percentage of the average CPU or memory utilization divided by the amount allocated for that resource.
  • CPU usage is determined using container_cpu_usage_seconds_total, converted from CPU seconds to cores using (current−previous)elapsed\frac{(\text{current} - \text{previous})}{\text{elapsed}}.
  • Memory usage is determined using container_memory_working_set_bytes.
  • The Vantage agent scrapes metrics at scheduled intervals based on your pollingInterval (default to 60 seconds), whereas Prometheus defaults to a 15-second interval. This can smooth out short-term resource usage spikes.
  • The agent reports on an hourly interval, capturing three values—average, min, and max—for both CPU and memory:
    • Average: ∑datapointscount(datapoints)\frac{\sum \text{datapoints}}{\text{count(datapoints)}}
      • CPU (Average): avg_over_time(irate(container_cpu_usage_seconds_total[1m])[1h])\text{avg\_over\_time}(\text{irate}(\text{container\_cpu\_usage\_seconds\_total[1m]})[1h])
      • Memory (Average): avg_over_time(container_memory_working_set_bytes[1h])\text{avg\_over\_time}(\text{container\_memory\_working\_set\_bytes[1h]})
    • Min: min⁡(datapoints)\min(\text{datapoints})
      • CPU (Min): min_over_time(irate(container_cpu_usage_seconds_total[1m])[1h])\text{min\_over\_time}(\text{irate}(\text{container\_cpu\_usage\_seconds\_total[1m]})[1h])
      • Memory (Min): min_over_time(container_memory_working_set_bytes[1h])\text{min\_over\_time}(\text{container\_memory\_working\_set\_bytes[1h]})
    • Max: max⁡(datapoints)\max(\text{datapoints})
      • CPU (Max): max_over_time(irate(container_cpu_usage_seconds_total[1m])[1h])\text{max\_over\_time}(\text{irate}(\text{container\_cpu\_usage\_seconds\_total[1m]})[1h])
      • Memory (Max): max_over_time(container_memory_working_set_bytes[1h])\text{max\_over\_time}(\text{container\_memory\_working\_set\_bytes[1h]})
  • The lookback period for recommendations is 30 days, aggregating data by workload controller (e.g., Deployment).
2

Determine the target amount for rightsizing.

  • The target amount is calculated by dividing the average usage by the efficiency target of 80%. For example, if your average usage is 100, and the efficiency target is 80%, then Vantage determines the right size to be 100.8\frac{100}{.8}, or 125125.
  • This target amount might exceed the maximum observed usage, which is acceptable to provide room for potential spikes in resource usage. This also prevents containers from being terminated due to resource exhaustion.
  • The following values are produced for each container within a workload over the lookback period:
    • avg: The average usage across all pods of a workload.
    • min: The average minimum usage across all pods (not the absolute minimum).
    • max: The average maximum usage across all pods (not the absolute maximum).
  • For memory, the average memory value is the average of all recorded average memory usage values over the lookback period. The max memory value is the average of all recorded max memory usage values.
  • Every minute, the agent queries node metrics from the Kubernetes control plane, tracking both the total memory used and the highest recorded memory usage. These values are then aggregated over the hour.
  • A similar methodology is used for CPU, where container_cpu_usage_seconds_total is used to track CPU usage per second, and averages/max values are derived accordingly.
3

Calculate the potential savings.

  • Savings is the difference between current configuration and target configuration multiplied by a standard hourly base rate.
  • For Deployments and StatefulSets, these savings are further multiplied by the number of replicas configured for each controller.
  • The calculated amount of savings must be at least $5 to be considered for rightsizing recommendations.
If you make a configuration change to a pod, the Vantage Kubernetes agent will upload the new configuration for the pod within the hour that it is available. Vantage reruns recommendations once the next Kubernetes ingestion is processed, which is every 24 hours.
