Saving Plan Showing as underused, but still being charged on-demand usage.
Hi there!
On Dec 1st I submitted a purchase for a savings plan which should cover m5 family ec2 instance usage on us-east-1 region. I made the calculations to cover roughly what I was planning to use, but when looking at the billing details, it shows it only covered around %40 of the actual usage; but again, when looking at the saving plans usage, it shows only %54 of it was used. I couldn't figure out why all the usage wasn't being applied agaisnt the savings plan.
The instance usage I intended to cover with this plan was a m5.2xlarge running Windows with SQL Enterprise. (The only m5 instance I'm actively using in this region)
Unfortunatelly I can't post screenshots, but my m5 coverage report on us-east-1 region shows 44% coverage, but on the other hand my Saving plan utilization report shows only 54% usage.
Thanks!!
