What features does the Resource Usage menu provide?

The Resource Usage menu in OpsNow FinOps Plus provides a unified interface to view and analyze cloud infrastructure resources across AWS, Azure, and GCP. It is designed to help organizations manage their multi-cloud environments more efficiently and uncover cost optimization opportunities. Key features include:

1. Unified Multi-Cloud Resource View

Consolidate and view AWS EC2, Azure VMs, GCP instances, and more — all in one dashboard.
You can filter by region, account (subscription/project), product type, and tags to find specific resources quickly.

2. Detailed Resource Information

Each instance includes comprehensive operational data, such as:

  • Status (running, stopped, terminated, etc.)
  • vCPU, OS, public/private IP, launch date, and tags
  • Vendor-specific fields like Azure VM Size or GCP CPU Platform

3. Automated Optimization Insights

The system automatically analyzes each resource and displays optimization recommendations such as:

  • Downsize: Reduce over-provisioned resources
  • Modernize: Switch to newer, more cost-effective types
  • NoReview: Awaiting analysis
    These insights help teams identify cost-saving opportunities.

4. Visualized Usage History

The History tab provides usage trend graphs by day, week, or month.
Minimum, maximum, and average usage values are also shown to help track usage spikes and align with budget planning.

5. Tag-Based Resource Segmentation

Classify resources by business unit, project, owner, or purpose using custom tags.
This supports chargeback, responsibility mapping, and operational governance across teams.

Overall, the Resource Usage menu supports not just visibility but also actionable insights for right-sizing and governance.
It enables organizations to make data-driven decisions about cloud resource operations across vendors and regions.
