AWS Service: AWS Compute Optimizer

Question: How do you configure AWS Compute Optimizer to support hybrid cloud environments and applications running outside of AWS?

Answer:

AWS Compute Optimizer is a service that provides optimization recommendations for AWS resources, such as Amazon EC2 instances, Auto Scaling groups, Amazon ECS tasks, and Amazon RDS database instances. Since Compute Optimizer is an AWS service, it can only optimize resources that are deployed within the AWS cloud.

However, it is still possible to use Compute Optimizer in conjunction with hybrid cloud environments by configuring the AWS resources within the AWS portion of the hybrid cloud. For example, if you have a hybrid cloud environment with on-premises resources and AWS resources, you could configure Compute Optimizer to optimize the AWS resources and use other optimization tools to optimize the on-premises resources.

Additionally, if you have applications running outside of AWS that are critical to your business, you can still optimize their performance and cost by using third-party tools and services that provide similar optimization recommendations.
