Maximizing Cloud Savings: Where to Start

I’ve been diving into cloud cost management, and I’m curious about what tools you all find essential for identifying unnecessary spending. I recently used CloudHealth for a cost analysis, and it showed some missed opportunities in resource allocation. Any other suggestions or experiences to share?

CloudHealth’s analysis really highlights the pain points in resource allocation. I’ve found that setting up alerts for underutilized resources can help tackle those missed opportunities before they pile up. Have you explored any automation tools that integrate with CloudHealth for ongoing monitoring?
