Instance Memory Exceeds

This bot identifies instances whose random access memory (RAM) exceeds a user-defined value (default value is 32 GB). This bot can be useful when there is a concern that someone may launch an overly capable, i.e., expensive, instance.

Recommended Action

Contact the instance owner to determine the memory requirement is justified and, if not, use the resize capability in TRiA to resize the instance thereby reducing the amount of memory.
