Savings Plan is under-utilized

Here are some things you could consider to increase utilization of the compute savings plan:

• Check if your usage is covered by AWS free tier hours. Usage within free tier will not count towards savings plan utilization.
• Analyze the utilization report to understand usage patterns and identify opportunities to consolidate workloads or right-size instances. This could lead to more usage being covered by the savings plan.
• Consider adopting recommendations from AWS Compute Optimizer to improve resource utilization through right-sizing or workload consolidation. This can help increase savings plan usage.
• Forecast future compute usage based on growth projections and adjust instance types/counts to fully utilize the savings plan capacity.
• Rebalance workloads across regions included in the plan to take advantage of under-utilized capacity in some regions.
• For a 3-year plan, utilization may increase over time as usage grows. Monitor utilization regularly and adjust resource provisioning as needed.
