AWS Infrastructure Analyzer & Optimizer
Analyze & optimize your AWS infrastructure for cost, performance, and security
What You Can Do
Upload your AWS architecture details or CloudFormation templates, and Claude will conduct a comprehensive analysis of your infrastructure. You'll receive specific optimization recommendations for cost reduction, performance improvements, security hardening, and scalability enhancements tailored to your actual workloads and business requirements.
Features
Identify expensive resources and rightsize instances for 30-50% savings
Find misconfigurations causing latency or throughput issues
Detect exposed credentials, open security groups, and compliance gaps
Recommend auto-scaling policies and multi-AZ architectures
Calculate RI purchases vs on-demand to maximize your budget
Analyze query patterns and index strategies
Evaluate failover, data residency, and global deployment options
Improve cost allocation and governance
Example Output
Example 1: Cost Analysis
✓ RDS Instance Oversizing: c5.2xlarge → c5.large saves $2,400/month
✓ Unattached EBS Volumes: 12 volumes × $0.10/GB = $240/month waste
✓ NAT Gateway Optimization: Consolidate across 3 AZs → 1 saves $160/month
Total Potential Savings: $2,800/month (34% reduction)
Example 2: Security Findings
- 🔴 Critical: Security group 'web-sg' allows 0.0.0.0/0 on port 22
- 🟡 Warning: S3 bucket 'data-archive' has public read-write access
- 🟡 Warning: RDS 'prod-db' backup retention = 7 days (recommend 30+)
Compliance Gap: VPC has no VPC Flow Logs enabled (required for audit)
Example 3: Performance Recommendations
→ CloudFront Distribution: Add caching headers to reduce origin load by 60%
→ DynamoDB: Switch to on-demand pricing for variable workloads (saves 45% on peaks)
→ Lambda Cold Starts: Provision concurrency for 3 latency-sensitive functions
→ RDS Read Replica: Add replica in us-west-2 for cross-region users
