Realized Cost Savings Dashboard

The Realized Cost Savings Dashboard helps you to quantify the realized cost savings from actions performed that are related to recommendations provided by VMware Aria Operations. You can analyze the realized savings to track improvements to cost efficiency over time. Realized savings covers powered off VMs that were flagged as idle, deleted VMs that were flagged as idle or powered off, deleted snapshots that were flagged as reclaimable, deleted disks that were flagged as orphaned, oversized VMs that were rightsized, and deleted hosts that were flagged as reclaimable.
