The process of optimizing the size of your cloud resources based on your workload requirements.
In cloud computing, right-sizing is the process of optimizing the size of your cloud resources based on your workload requirements. It's a strategy used to match the amount of resources you're using to the needs of your workload, helping to improve efficiency and reduce costs.
Right-sizing works by analyzing your workloads and adjusting your resource usage accordingly.
A company, TechCorp, uses a cloud service for its data storage needs. Over time, TechCorp realizes that it's paying for more storage than it actually uses. By right-sizing its storage resources, TechCorp can reduce its storage size to match its actual usage, saving money without affecting performance.
