Umbrella's Reserved Instance Utilization capability provides a centralized, comprehensive view of all AWS Reserved Instances (RIs) across your organization. It is designed to help cloud finance, operations, and engineering teams understand, optimize, and govern RI usage across services, accounts, and periods.

This capability captures and visualizes Reserved Instance data every month, enabling stakeholders to monitor how effectively reservations are being used and where savings opportunities or inefficiencies exist.
