AWS Compute Optimizer

2026/06/03 - AWS Compute Optimizer - 4 updated api methods

Changes  This release lets customers extend the lookback period for Amazon EBS volume and Amazon ECS rightsizing recommendations to 32 days.

ExportEBSVolumeRecommendations (updated) Link ¶
Changes (request)
{'fieldsToExport': {'EffectiveRecommendationPreferencesLookBackPeriod'}}

Exports optimization recommendations for Amazon EBS volumes.

Recommendations are exported in a comma-separated values (.csv) file, and its metadata in a JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) (.json) file, to an existing Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) bucket that you specify. For more information, see Exporting Recommendations in the Compute Optimizer User Guide.

You can have only one Amazon EBS volume export job in progress per Amazon Web Services Region.

type accountIds:

list

param accountIds:

The IDs of the Amazon Web Services accounts for which to export Amazon EBS volume recommendations.

If your account is the management account of an organization, use this parameter to specify the member account for which you want to export recommendations.

This parameter cannot be specified together with the include member accounts parameter. The parameters are mutually exclusive.

Recommendations for member accounts are not included in the export if this parameter, or the include member accounts parameter, is omitted.

You can specify multiple account IDs per request.

  • (string) --

type filters:

list

param filters:

An array of objects to specify a filter that exports a more specific set of Amazon EBS volume recommendations.

  • (dict) --

    Describes a filter that returns a more specific list of Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon EBS) volume recommendations. Use this filter with the GetEBSVolumeRecommendations action.

    You can use LambdaFunctionRecommendationFilter with the GetLambdaFunctionRecommendations action, JobFilter with the DescribeRecommendationExportJobs action, and Filter with the GetAutoScalingGroupRecommendations and GetEC2InstanceRecommendations actions.

    • name (string) --

      The name of the filter.

      Specify Finding to return recommendations with a specific finding classification (for example, NotOptimized).

      You can filter your Amazon EBS volume recommendations by tag:key and tag-key tags.

      A tag:key is a key and value combination of a tag assigned to your Amazon EBS volume recommendations. Use the tag key in the filter name and the tag value as the filter value. For example, to find all Amazon EBS volume recommendations that have a tag with the key of Owner and the value of TeamA, specify tag:Owner for the filter name and TeamA for the filter value.

      A tag-key is the key of a tag assigned to your Amazon EBS volume recommendations. Use this filter to find all of your Amazon EBS volume recommendations that have a tag with a specific key. This doesn’t consider the tag value. For example, you can find your Amazon EBS volume recommendations with a tag key value of Owner or without any tag keys assigned.

After you create the S3 bucket, ensure that it has the required permission policy to allow Compute Optimizer to write the export file to it. If you plan to specify an object prefix when you create the export job, you must include the object prefix in the policy that you add to the S3 bucket. For more information, see Amazon S3 Bucket Policy for Compute Optimizer in the Compute Optimizer User Guide.

Indicates whether to include recommendations for resources in all member accounts of the organization if your account is the management account of an organization.

The member accounts must also be opted in to Compute Optimizer, and trusted access for Compute Optimizer must be enabled in the organization account. For more information, see Compute Optimizer and Amazon Web Services Organizations trusted access in the Compute Optimizer User Guide.

Recommendations for member accounts of the organization are not included in the export file if this parameter is omitted.

              The Compute Optimizer API, Command Line Interface (CLI), and SDKs return utilization metrics using only the Maximum statistic, which is the highest value observed during the specified period.

              The Compute Optimizer console displays graphs for some utilization metrics using the Average statistic, which is the value of Sum / SampleCount during the specified period. For more information, see Viewing resource recommendations in the Compute Optimizer User Guide. You can also get averaged utilization metric data for your resources using Amazon CloudWatch. For more information, see the Amazon CloudWatch User Guide.

          Findings for Amazon ECS services include:

          • Underprovisioned — When Compute Optimizer detects that there’s not enough memory or CPU, an Amazon ECS service is considered under-provisioned. An under-provisioned service might result in poor application performance.

          • Overprovisioned — When Compute Optimizer detects that there’s excessive memory or CPU, an Amazon ECS service is considered over-provisioned. An over-provisioned service might result in additional infrastructure costs.

          • Optimized — When both the CPU and memory of your Amazon ECS service meet the performance requirements of your workload, the service is considered optimized.

        • findingReasonCodes (list) --

          The reason for the finding classification of an Amazon ECS service.

          Finding reason codes for Amazon ECS services include:

          • CPUUnderprovisioned — The service CPU configuration can be sized up to enhance the performance of your workload. This is identified by analyzing the CPUUtilization metric of the current service during the look-back period.

          • CPUOverprovisioned — The service CPU configuration can be sized down while still meeting the performance requirements of your workload. This is identified by analyzing the CPUUtilization metric of the current service during the look-back period.

          • MemoryUnderprovisioned — The service memory configuration can be sized up to enhance the performance of your workload. This is identified by analyzing the MemoryUtilization metric of the current service during the look-back period.

          • MemoryOverprovisioned — The service memory configuration can be sized down while still meeting the performance requirements of your workload. This is identified by analyzing the MemoryUtilization metric of the current service during the look-back period.
