ECS Service Heatmap-Based Schedule Opportunity
A running ECS service whose weekly usage shows the same idle window every week bills through every hour of it. A start and stop schedule recovers those hours.
Free to start. No card. The playground just needs your work email.
AWS
Found, explained, handed over.
Findings with a dollar figure attached, idle, oversized, orphaned, unscheduled and undiscounted spend.
Detect
ZopNight checks this automatically across AWS, with read-only access to the account.
Explain
Every finding says exactly what to change: Schedule the ECS service off-hours. Where the saving can be proven it is priced; where it cannot, the finding says so.
Fix
The finding opens with the change already spelled out, so the fix is one ticket, not an investigation.
