Viewing Savings Plans recommendation details
Savings Plans recommendation details offer visibility into the potential impact of a recommended Savings Plan on your hourly On-Demand cost, coverage, and utilization. Each recommendation is designed to maximize your savings, taking into account your chosen Recommendation parameters, your current Savings Plans inventory, and your On-Demand spend over the lookback period. You can also access the Purchase Analyzer page from the Recommendation details page, enabling you to customize your recommendations further and estimate the cost, coverage, and utilization impact of your next Savings Plan purchase for custom commitments.
