GCP
Idle Resource Finder
GCP resources sitting idle and costing money — low-CPU VMs, idle SQL, unattached disks.

Same idea on another cloud
What this pane shows
A cross-service search for likely deletion candidates: Compute Engine VMs under 5% CPU for 7+ days, Cloud SQL instances with no client connections, unattached persistent disks. Each row carries the resource, its idle metric and estimated monthly waste.
Key use cases
- Find the largest cost-saving wins for a focused cleanup sprint.
- Audit non-production environments for resources that should be off.
- Build a deletion-candidate list with the dollar amount per row.
- Catch dev / experimental resources that were forgotten about.
