Which cloud providers are supported by this skill?

The Cloud Cost Optimizer skill supports all major cloud platforms, including Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud Platform (GCP).

Can it automate the cost-saving changes directly?

The skill primarily provides expert recommendations and production-ready configurations. However, it can be used alongside other DevOps plugins to automate the application of these changes via Infrastructure-as-Code.

How does the skill identify potential savings?

It analyzes resource utilization patterns and metadata provided in your request, matching them against best practices to suggest rightsizing, instance termination, or reserved capacity strategies.

Is it suitable for enterprise-scale cloud environments?

Yes, the skill is designed to handle complex environments by providing structured cost reports and identifying patterns of waste that are common in large-scale cloud deployments.
