Introducing AWS Trusted Advisor Explorer

Posted on: May 7, 2020

AWS Trusted Advisor Explorer is an AWS Solution that automatically provisions the infrastructure necessary to aggregate cost optimization recommendations and actively track cost optimization health across your organization over time. The solution creates a data lake that can be used to create dashboards to visually explore the data. The solution enriches the data with Resource Tags that further enhance the discovery and filtering capabilities.  

The solution leverages AWS Trusted Advisor’s Cost Optimization recommendations and AWS Resource Groups Tag Editor data to build a data lake that can be queried using Amazon Athena and visualized using Amazon QuickSight or any other visualization platform. The solution uses AWS Organizations, AWS Lambda, AWS Step Functions, Amazon S3, AWS Glue, Amazon Athena, Amazon Simple Notification Service, AWS Resource Groups, and AWS IAM roles.
