IBM Kubecost

What Your K8s Cost Report Isn't Telling You In our November Monthly Kubechat, What Your K8s Cost Report Isn't Telling You, we'll dive into the hidden insights that standard Kubernetes cost reports often miss-and how to turn that information into actionable strategies.

Most K8s cost reports miss the mark. In our 11/20 Monthly Kubechat, we’ll show how to turn raw data into real insights—and real savings.

✅ Spot inefficiencies
✅ Align FinOps + DevOps

The Hidden Cost of Idle K8s Resources (and What to Do About It) We'll explore the hidden inefficiencies in Kubernetes clusters that silently drive up cloud spend. Idle pods, over-provisioned nodes, and unused storage often go unnoticed, even in mature environments. This session will focus on how to detect idle resources, measure their real-world impact, and apply technical strategies to reclaim efficiency.

Dynamic Kubernetes request right sizing with Kubecost | Amazon Web Services In this post, we demonstrate how to utilize the Kubecost Amazon EKS add-on to reduce infrastructure costs and enhance Kubernetes efficiency through Container Request Right Sizing, which helps identify and fix inefficient container resource configurations. We explore how to review Kubecost's right sizing recommendations and implement them through either one-time updates or scheduled automated resizing within Amazon EKS environments for continuous resource optimization.
