Datadog generates a set of recommendations by combining your observability data with your underlying cloud provider billing data to identify orphaned, legacy, or over-provisioned cloud resources. Recommendations are run on a daily basis and are automatically refreshed in your account as soon as the recommendations are released. - For **all resources**, [cloud cost metrics](https://docs.datadoghq.com/cloud_cost_management/container_cost_allocation/?tab=aws#cost-metrics) are also pulled for that resource - For all **AWS resources** besides Kubernetes and EC2, AWS metrics are also pulled from [AWS CloudWatch](https://docs.datadoghq.com/integrations/amazon_s3_storage_lens/) {% image source="https://datadog-docs.imgix.net/images/cloud_cost/recommendations/cost_recommendations_1.4c0a58bb9a1f570d3c5d80231ef07d5d.png?auto=format" alt="Overview tab with potential monthly savings, potential annual savings, and total number of open cases on the Cloud Cost Recommendations page" /%} You can see the detailed logic for each recommendation type, along with observability metrics or cost data shown on this page. Recommendations support [Tag Pipelines](https://docs.datadoghq.com/cloud_cost_management/allocation/tag_pipelines/), allowing you to filter, group, and analyze recommendations using your organization's standardized tags. Any tag rules configured in Tag Pipelines are automatically applied to recommendations and [are normalized](https://docs.datadoghq.com/cloud_cost_management/tags/#how-tags-are-normalized). ## Recommendation categories{% #recommendation-categories %} Below are the available cloud cost recommendation categories and their descriptions. | Recommendation Category | Description | | ----------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | Terminate | Resources with signals that the resource is unused or very low utilization signals. Consider terminating or deleting these resources to reduce your costs. | | Migrate | Resources with moderately low utilization signals or other inefficiencies. Consider adjusting the instance type or other parameters. | | Downsize | Resources that are under-utilized or over-provisioned. Consider adjusting the size or other parameters to reduce costs. | | Purchase | Resources with on-demand charges and extended uptime. Purchasing a reservation or Savings Plan can reduce the amortized cost of the resource. | ## Prerequisites{% #prerequisites %} The following are requirements necessary to receive Cloud Cost recommendations: - Cloud provider accounts (for all desired Cloud Cost recommendations) - [AWS integration and resource collection](https://docs.datadoghq.com/integrations/amazon_web_services/#resource-collection) (for AWS recommendations) - [Azure integration and resource collection](https://app.datadoghq.com/integrations/azure) (for Azure recommendations) - [GCP integration and resource collection](https://app.datadoghq.com/integrations/gcp) (for GCP recommendations) - [Datadog Agent integration](https://docs.datadoghq.com/agent/) (for Downsize recommendations) ## Setup{% #setup %} For each cloud account that you would like to receive recommendations for: 1. Configure [Cloud Cost Management](https://docs.datadoghq.com/cloud_cost_management/setup/aws/#setup) to send billing data to Datadog. - For Azure, this requires using the App Registration method to collect billing data. 1. Enable [resource collection](https://docs.datadoghq.com/integrations/amazon_web_services/#resource-collection) for recommendations. - For AWS, enable resource collection in the **Resource Collection** tab on the [AWS integration tile](https://app.datadoghq.com/integrations/aws). - For Azure, enable resource collection with the appropriate integration. If your organization is on the Datadog US3 site, the [Azure Native Integration](https://docs.datadoghq.com/integrations/azure/) enables this automatically through metrics collection. For all other sites, enabling resource collection within the [Azure integration tile](https://app.datadoghq.com/integrations/azure) is required. - For GCP, enable resource collection in the **Resource Collection** tab on the [Google Cloud Platform integration tile](https://app.datadoghq.com/integrations/gcp). 1. Install the [Datadog Agent](https://docs.datadoghq.com/agent/) (required for Downsize recommendations). **Note**: Cloud Cost Recommendations supports billing in customers' non-USD currencies. ## Recommendation statuses{% #recommendation-statuses %} Assign a status to each recommendation to track cost optimization progress across your teams. Statuses persist when recommendations regenerate daily. You don't need to re-triage the same recommendations. | Status | Description | | ----------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | Open | (Default) The recommendation has not been triaged. | | In Progress | Work is underway to address this recommendation. | | Completed | The recommended action has been taken or is no longer relevant. | | Dismissed | No work is planned for this recommendation over the time frame specified when dismissing. | ### Change a recommendation status{% #change-a-recommendation-status %} 1. Click a recommendation in the [**Cloud Cost Recommendations**](https://app.datadoghq.com/cost/recommendations) list to open the side panel. 1. Use the status dropdown to select a new status. ## Recommendation action-taking{% #recommendation-action-taking %} You can act on recommendations to save money and optimize costs. Cloud Cost Recommendations support Jira, 1-click Workflow Automation, and Datadog Case Management. Unused EBS and GP2 EBS volume recommendations also support 1-click Workflow Automation. See the following details for each action-taking option: - **Jira**: Create Jira issues directly from the recommendation side panel or by selecting multiple recommendations in the "Active Recommendations" list and clicking "Create Jira issue." Created issues are tagged and link back to the recommendation in Datadog. To filter recommendations by Jira status, use the following query options: - `@jira_issues.issue_key:*` - Show only recommendations with a Jira issue - `-@jira_issues.issue_key:*` - Show only recommendations without a Jira issue - `jira_issues.issue_key:ABC*` - Filter by specific Jira project prefix - **Bits AI Dev Agent code fixes**: Code fixes are available for all S3 recommendations. In these situations, the Bits AI Dev Agent (in Preview) creates production-ready pull requests to implement cloud resource changes and cost optimizations. Join the Preview and [set up the Bits AI Dev Agent](https://docs.datadoghq.com/bits_ai/bits_ai_dev_agent/setup) to use this feature. Join the Preview!: Bits AI Dev Agent is in Preview. To sign up, click **Request Access** and complete the form. [Request Access](http://datadoghq.com/product-preview/bits-ai-dev-agent) - **1-click Workflow Automation actions**: Actions are available for a limited set of recommendations, allowing users to execute suggested actions, such as clicking "Delete EBS Volume", directly within Cloud Cost Management. - **Datadog Case Management**: Users can go to the recommendation side panel and click "Create Case" to generate a case to manage and take action on recommendations. - **Dismiss**: Use "Dismiss" in the recommendation side panel to hide a recommendation for a chosen time frame and provide a reason. Dismissed recommendations move to the "Dismissed" tab. ## Recommendation and resource descriptions{% #recommendation-and-resource-descriptions %} | Recommendation Category | Cloud Provider | Resource Type | Recommendation Type | Recommendation Description | Recommendation Prerequisites | | ----------------------- | -------------- | --------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | Migrate | AWS | Auto Scaling Group | Migrate ASG Legacy Instances | An Auto Scaling group that includes legacy instance types. | | Downsize | AWS | Auto Scaling Group | Reduce Minimum Capacity | An Auto Scaling group with a minimum capacity of instances that can be reduced. | [Datadog Agent](https://docs.datadoghq.com/agent/) | | Terminate | AWS | CloudTrail Trail | Delete unnecessary CloudTrail trails | CloudTrail trails with paid events can be deleted to reduce costs. | | Terminate | AWS | DynamoDB Table | Delete DynamoDB Global Secondary Index | A DynamoDB table's Global Secondary Index (GSI) has 0 consumed reads. | | Terminate | AWS | DynamoDB Table | Delete DynamoDB Table | A DynamoDB table has 0 consumed reads and 0 consumed non-replica writes. | | Terminate | AWS | DynamoDB Table | Delete Extra On-Demand Backups | A DynamoDB table has charges for more than 2 on-demand backups. | | Downsize | AWS | DynamoDB Table | Downsize DynamoDB Capacity | A provisioned DynamoDB table using less than 80% of its read and write capacity more than 80% of the time. | | Migrate | AWS | DynamoDB Table | Migrate DynamoDB to Infrequent Access Table Class | Migrating to the Infrequent Access (IA) table class offers more potential savings from storage rates compared to the additional costs from capacity rates. | | Migrate | AWS | DynamoDB Table | Migrate DynamoDB to On-Demand Capacity Mode | A provisioned DynamoDB table has an hourly read and write capacity consumption below 18% at least once in the last two weeks. | | Migrate | AWS | DynamoDB Table | Migrate DynamoDB to Provisioned Capacity Mode | An on-demand DynamoDB table has an hourly read and write capacity consumption that is always greater than 18%. | | Migrate | AWS | DynamoDB Table | Migrate DynamoDB to Standard Table Class | Migrating to the Standard table class offers potential savings from capacity rates compared to the additional costs from storage rates, or it uses the Standard table class' free tier for storage. | | Purchase | AWS | DynamoDB Table | Purchase Reserved Capacity | Purchase reserved capacity for stable provisioned capacity units charged at standard rates. | | Terminate | AWS | EBS Snapshot | Delete Old EBS Snapshots | EBS Snapshots that are at least 90 days old and can be deleted. | | Downsize | AWS | EBS Volume | Downsize EBS Volume Provisioned IOPS | An EBS volume using less than 80% of the provisioned IOPS for reads and writes. | [Amazon EC2 integration](https://docs.datadoghq.com/integrations/amazon_ec2/) | | Downsize | AWS | EBS Volume | Downsize EBS Volume Provisioned Throughput | An EBS volume using less than the configured threshold of the provisioned throughput for reads and writes. | [Amazon EC2 integration](https://docs.datadoghq.com/integrations/amazon_ec2/) | | Downsize | AWS | EBS Volume | Downsize EBS Volume Storage Capacity | An EBS volume with less than 20% of its storage capacity used. | [Amazon EC2 integration](https://docs.datadoghq.com/integrations/amazon_ec2/) | | Migrate | AWS | EBS Volume | Migrate EBS Volume from GP2 to GP3 | EBS volumes that are GP2 and can be upgraded to GP3 for cost reduction and performance improvement. | | Migrate | AWS | EBS Volume | Migrate EBS Volume from IO1 to GP3 | EBS volumes that are IO1 and can be upgraded to GP3 for cost reduction and performance improvement. | | Terminate | AWS | EBS Volume | Terminate Unattached EBS Volume | Volume that is not attached to an EC2 instance. | | Terminate | AWS | EBS Volume | Terminate Unused EBS Volume | Volume that has no read or write activity. | | Terminate | AWS | Elastic IP | Delete Idle Elastic IP | Elastic IP addresses with idle charges in your AWS cost and usage report. | | Downsize | AWS | EC2 Instance | Downsize EC2 Instance | EC2 instances with CPU and memory utilization less than the available resources of the next smallest instance in the family.
