Types you will see
The engine evaluates multiple operational domains (compute, storage, network, database, idle resources, lifecycle, tagging and others). The list shows a type on each row:
| Type | Typical action |
|---|---|
| Right sizing | Change instance or SKU |
| Idle resource | Stop or delete unused capacity |
| Cost optimisation | Commitment coverage, licensing, transfer |
| Lifecycle | Storage class or retention |
| Tagging | Fill required allocation tags |
Status
| Status | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Ready | Enough evidence for an owner to act |
| Review | Needs a human check (risk, coverage, shared resource) |
