Description: ‘Unsubscribed Resources’ refer to those assets or services in the cloud that are available for use but have not been actively contracted or subscribed to by a user or organization. These resources can include computing instances, storage, databases, and other services that, while technically available, are not in use or being billed. Identifying and managing these resources is crucial in the context of cloud financial management (FinOps) and cost optimization, as they can represent significant opportunities to reduce unnecessary expenses. Since they are not subscribed, these resources may incur hidden costs or inefficiencies in the utilization of cloud infrastructure. Therefore, it is essential for organizations to conduct regular audits to identify and manage these resources, ensuring that they only pay for what they actually use. Cloud cost optimization involves not only eliminating unused resources but also correctly allocating and utilizing available resources to maximize the return on investment in the cloud.
