Layer 1 · Unattended consulting assessment

Get an independent RDS SQL Server optimization decision.

Determine whether an RDS SQL Server workload can reduce compute or licensed-vCPU capacity without relying on a generic utilization score. Upload customer-controlled collector evidence and receive a primary action-ready decision, with any smaller validation-required opportunity kept separate.

Why RDS for SQL Server costs are difficult to right-size

CPU

Peak sizing hides usable capacity

Average CPU misses concurrent SQL and non-SQL demand. Savio projects the collected samples onto every candidate.

SQL

Licensing changes the economics

Instance size and visible vCPU can affect SQL Server licensing cost, including Optimize CPU opportunities that preserve memory and I/O.

FIT

CPU alone cannot approve a target

Memory, IOPS, throughput, tempdb, edition, orderability, and evidence quality must support the decision.

How the assessment works

1 Run the collector

Gather customer-controlled, read-only SQL Server workload evidence.

2 Upload evidence

Submit the collector ZIP without granting AWS account credentials.

3 Receive the decision

Review the primary target, confidence, guardrails, alternatives, and next action.
