New Check: Underutilized Amazon Redshift Clusters

Open brittandeyoung opened this issue 1 year ago • 0 comments

Summary

Checks your Amazon Redshift configuration for clusters that appear to be underutilized.

Motivation

If an Amazon Redshift cluster has not had a connection for a prolonged period of time, or is using a low amount of CPU, you can use lower-cost options such as downsizing the cluster, or shutting down the cluster and taking a final snapshot. Final snapshots are retained even after you delete your cluster.
