Metrics analyzed by Amazon Compute Optimizer
After you opt in, Amazon Compute Optimizer analyzes the specifications, such as vCPUs, memory, or storage, and the Amazon CloudWatch metrics of your running resources from a period over the last 14 days. If you activate the enhanced infrastructure metrics recommendation preference, Amazon Compute Optimizer analyzes your resources for up to 93 days.
The analysis can take up to 24 hours to complete. When the analysis is complete, the findings are displayed on the dashboard page of the Compute Optimizer console. For more information, see Using the Amazon Compute Optimizer dashboard.
