[Feat] Add RAM Metrics to RI Recommendations If Available
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe Currently, the RI recommendations do not incorporate RAM metrics, which limits the insight available for resource optimization. I'm often frustrated when critical memory performance information is missing, as it prevents me from making fully informed decisions.
Describe the solution you'd like I propose that the RI recommendation system be enhanced to include RAM metrics when such data is available (CWAgent). This would involve integrating real-time or historical RAM usage data into the recommendation engine, providing users with a more comprehensive view of system performance and resource allocation.
Additional context Adding RAM metrics would help ensure that recommendations are more balanced and reflective of the system's overall performance. However, that ll not be always available, cuz on aws exists the preq to enable cwagent to collect them.
Hi @JuanVilla424, this functional will be implemented in future releases but there is no approximate date for the implementation time yet. Please follow our releases: https://github.com/hystax/optscale/releases, all new implemented functionality will be described in the release notes.
Hi @JuanVilla424! Could you please provide more details on your case? Reserved Instances recommendation doesn't suggest changing the instance type. It only recommends applying Reserved Instances to the current instance type, so the VM's performance metrics shouldn't change after applying RI.
Greetings,
Sure, I had a lot of servers, optscale is suggesting me an instance type to reserve, but that didnt check the recomendations from aws Compute Optimizer, my suggest is to include it, only if account has Accunt Optimizer enabled and mix the recomendation from optimizer with the RI recomendation.
Thats cuz for example optscale recommends me to reserve an instance, but if I check in addition to AWS Compute Optimizer I got even more optimization, switching family, downsizing instance or updating with no cost, example m5 to m6i.
On this way, recomendation reserves can be even more efficient
Thanks! I've created a ticket to research integrating with AWS Compute Optimizer.
@JuanVilla424, integration with AWS Compute optimizer will be implemented but not in the upcoming releases, please check release notes(https://github.com/hystax/optscale/releases) in order not to miss new functionality.
