What's this blog post about?

CloudCheckr is a web-based platform that helps businesses monitor and optimize their AWS infrastructure by providing customized recommendations based on resource consumption data. By integrating with Datadog, users can access granular memory usage metrics for every AWS instance, which are used to inform CloudCheckr's analyses and generate Right-Sizing Reports. These reports provide best practice recommendations for rebalancing and optimizing instances while saving costs. Users can also set custom alerts in CloudCheckr to track consumption or spending. To get started, simply add Datadog API and application keys to the CloudCheckr Extensions.
