Abstract
A resource manager may monitor resources offered by a resource provider. The resource manager receives computing metrics from the resources and may perform a management action when a customer defined usage limit is satisfied. The management action may include the resource manager generating an alert, or the resource manager preventing the customer from further accessing the resources offered by the resource provider. The resource manager may also be used to reduce the cost of running a customer's application that uses resources offered by the service provider. The resource manager may also receive business metrics from the customer and determine rates of return using the business metrics and the computing metrics.
