Description: Resource usage refers to the amount of resources consumed by applications or processes in a system. This includes aspects such as memory, storage, processing power, and network bandwidth. Efficient management of these resources is crucial for optimal application performance, especially in various computing environments, including cloud environments and infrastructure as code. Inefficient resource usage can lead to high costs, slow response times, and a poor user experience. Therefore, it is essential to monitor and optimize resource usage to ensure that applications run effectively and economically. Monitoring and analysis tools allow developers and system administrators to identify bottlenecks and adjust their application configurations to improve performance. In the context of infrastructure as code, resource usage can be managed programmatically, enabling development teams to implement changes quickly and scale applications as needed. This not only enhances operational efficiency but also facilitates the implementation of DevOps practices and continuous integration, where resource usage becomes a key factor for the success of software projects.
