EC2 Capacity Manager
Amazon EC2 Capacity Manager allows you to monitor, analyze, and manage your capacity usage across On-Demand Instances, Spot Instances, and Capacity Reservations from a single location. Capacity Manager simplifies capacity tracking through a unified dashboard that aggregates your usage data with hourly refreshes and optimization opportunities.
Designed for large enterprises and multi-account organizations, Capacity Manager eliminates manual data collection from multiple sources. The tool provides deep insights across your AWS Regions. You can drill down into detailed capacity metrics and take immediate actions to optimize your cloud resources.
When you enable AWS Organizations integration, you can view and analyze capacity data across all member accounts in your organization from a single dashboard. Without Organizations integration, Capacity Manager only monitors resources within the individual AWS account where it's enabled.
Note
-
You can only enable Capacity Manager in one AWS Region per account.
-
All costs displayed in Capacity Manager are estimated costs based on published On-Demand pricing. These estimates don't include discounts such as Savings Plans or Reserved Instances. Your actual costs may differ from these estimates.
