Grouping and filtering data
Capacity Manager aggregates your metrics based on the dimensions and date period you choose. If no dimensions are chosen, Capacity Manager will aggregate the data and return one data point per period in the date range. You can group your data into smaller aggregations by adding dimensions.
-
Grouping — Break down your capacity data by dimensions such as Region, Instance Family, or Account ID. You can group your metrics by multiple dimensions to break down your data further. For example, if you group by Region and Availability Zone, you get a data point for each Region and AZ combination where you have usage.
-
Filtering — Show only specific subsets of the dimensions you selected. For example, if you group by instance family, you will get data points for all families where you have usage. However, if you also filter by p5, you see only data points for the p5 instance family.
-
Metric units — View results by different units like vCPUs, instances, or estimated costs. For example, after grouping by Region and filtering by a specific instance family, you can view the data in different ways. Switch between total vCPUs used, number of instances running, or estimated costs.
