Idle SageMaker Endpoint, No Invocations

A real-time endpoint bills for its instances from the moment it reaches InService until it is deleted, regardless of invocations.

Free to start. No card. The playground just needs your work email.

Found, explained, handed over.

Findings with a dollar figure attached, idle, oversized, orphaned, unscheduled and undiscounted spend.

01

Detect

ZopNight checks this automatically across AWS, with read-only access to the account.

02

Explain

Every finding says exactly what to change: Delete the idle SageMaker endpoint. Where the saving can be proven it is priced; where it cannot, the finding says so.

03

Fix

The finding opens with the fix already written out, step by step, so it is one ticket, not an investigation.

Applies to
SageMaker Endpoints on AWS
The fix, by hand
  1. Confirm no application is invoking this endpoint (check CloudWatch Invocations).
  2. If a model must stay deployable, migrate to a serverless endpoint (pay-per-inference).
  3. Otherwise delete the endpoint to stop instance charges.
  4. Clean up the associated endpoint config and unused models.

These are the steps the finding carries in the product.
