計算式
Recommended vCPU = ceil(peak CPU% / 25). Recommended RAM = peak RAM × 1.3 (30% headroom).
よくある質問
What is right-sizing?
Right-sizing means selecting the smallest instance that meets performance requirements, avoiding over-provisioning.
Why add 30% RAM headroom?
Headroom prevents OOM kills under unexpected traffic spikes and leaves room for OS and monitoring agents.
How do I measure peak CPU?
Use monitoring tools (CloudWatch, Datadog) to capture 95th percentile CPU usage over representative traffic periods.
