AWS Compute Optimizer now supports 32-day lookback for EBS volume and ECS service rightsizing recommendations
AWS Compute Optimizer now lets you extend the lookback period of your Amazon EBS volume and Amazon ECS rightsizing recommendations from the default 14 days to 32 days, at no additional cost. A longer lookback period allows Compute Optimizer to account for monthly utilization patterns, such as month-end processing, when generating rightsizing recommendations. This can help you make better optimization decisions for your workload, leading to better cost and performance outcomes. AWS Compute Optimizer supports 32-day lookback periods for five types of recommendations: EC2 instance, EC2 Auto Scali
AWS continuously refines its optimization tools to help customers manage cloud costs more effectively as cloud adoption matures and becomes more complex.
This incremental improvement in cloud resource optimization directly impacts operational efficiency and cost management for businesses relying on AWS, particularly those with fluctuating monthly workloads.
Cloud cost optimization tools now offer more accurate and comprehensive recommendations for EBS and ECS, potentially reducing wasted spend by better accounting for monthly usage patterns.

- · Cloud cost management platforms
- · FinOps teams
- · Organizations with inefficient cloud spending
Organizations can achieve more precise rightsizing recommendations, leading to immediate cost savings on AWS.
Improved cost predictability and reduced wasted spending could free up budget for further cloud innovation or other strategic initiatives.
Enhanced optimization capabilities across various AWS services might subtly reduce the pressure for immediate multi-cloud diversification purely for cost-management reasons within some enterprises.
