Summary Table

 

Asset Group

User defined name of asset group.

Instance Name

Your given machine name.

OS

Installed operating system.

OS Version

The version of the operating system.

Recommended Instance

The recommended AWS instance type.

Reduced cores

-

Yes(Hyperthreading improves performance for some applications by allowing one process per hyperthread)

Tenancy

Shared or Dedicated tenancy.

Annual Cost

 

Total Cost ($)

Total cost of running the workload in AWS.

Compute Cost ($)

Total annual compute cost.

Storage Cost ($)

Total annual storage cost.

Network Cost ($)

Total annual network cost.

The designs labeled “OLA” show the cost of 10% of the total network traffic. This assumption is that most network traffic will not leave the AWS network.

Recommended Instance

The recommended AWS instance type.

Reduced Cores

The number of hardware/CPU threads recommended for the machine and this value is the same as “Recommended (Instance)” in CPU threads.

Analytics will try to reduce no. of CPU threads to reduce a license cost for MS SQL Server software product. So this “Reduced CPU threads” will occur for a machine where MS SQL server is installed. Moreover, in a pricing plan, one of license optimization options should be selected. They are “Optimize Cost and Reduce Number of Cores”, “Optimize Number of Threads”, “Disable Hyperthreading”.

Hyperthreading

With license optimization options, Analytics can recommend optimal instance type with or without hyperthreading. Enabled hyperthreading means two hardware/CPU threads in each core are used. Disabled hyperthreading means only one hardware thread in each core is used.

Tenancy

Shared or Dedicated tenancy.

EBS Optimized

Does the recommended instance require provisioned IOPS?

Bottleneck

What issue(s) would be caused if a smaller instance was recommended.

On Time

 

On Time (%)

Amount of time the machine was powered on during the assessment.

Recommended Daily ON Time (%)

Machine on-time percentage of representative one day. In other words, it is daily on-time percentage. Each day’s on-time over all days during data collection are used to derive this daily (representative one day) on-time percentage. On-time percent from 0 to 24 hours.

Recommended Weekly ON Time (%)

Machine on-time percentage of representative one week. In other words, it is weekly on-time percentage. Each week’s on-time over all days during data collection are used to derive this weekly (representative one week) on-time percentage. On-time percent from Sunday to Saturday.

CPU Threads

 

Current (Observed)

The number of cores/threads on the the current machine.

Recommended (Instance)

The number of cores/threads on the the recommended instance.

CPU Utilization

 

Current (%)

The observed significant CPU utilization peak in the current environment. By default this is calculated using the daily peak in the 95th percentile.

Predicted (%)

The predicted significant CPU utilization peak when running in AWS.

SLT (%)

Service Level Target: The maximum predicted CPU % allowed. If the predicted peak CPU utilization goes above this threshold more than 10% of the time the next larger instance is recommended.

Observed Memory

 

Currently Available (GB)

Amount of allocated memory present in current machine.

Peak Used (GB)

Largest memory usage peak observed during the assessment.

Instance Memory

 

Recommended Available (GB)

Memory available on the recommended instance.

Recommended Max Available(GB)

Maximum memory on the recommended instance (includes disk cache).
