This is an IBM Automation portal for Cloud Management, Technology Cost Management, Network Automation and AIOps products. To view all of your ideas submitted to IBM, create and manage groups of Ideas, or create an idea explicitly set to be either visible by all (public) or visible only to you and IBM (private), use the IBM Unified Ideas Portal (https://ideas.ibm.com).
We invite you to shape the future of IBM, including product roadmaps, by submitting ideas that matter to you the most. Here's how it works:
Start by searching and reviewing ideas and requests to enhance a product or service. Take a look at ideas others have posted, and add a comment, vote, or subscribe to updates on them if they matter to you. If you can't find what you are looking for,
Post an idea.
Get feedback from the IBM team and other customers to refine your idea.
Follow the idea through the IBM Ideas process.

Hello, I believe there is already a setting available for this. Under the Settings menu, go to Rightsizing Preferences. On that page there is a setting for "Resource Lifespan". Setting that value to 1, for example, will exclude recommendations for resources that have been inactive for 1 day.
By default, our Compute recommendations (EC2 / Azure Compute / GCP) currently include all resources that existed at any time in the lookback period (10 or 30 days) and for which money-saving recommendations can be provided. The primary reason we do this is that including all resources with potential savings gives the customer a complete picture of the total cost/savings that would have been possible in the time period if all resources that existed during the period had been terminated or sized as recommended. In particular, this helps identify the full cost / savings of short-lived instances that may be automatically created through various automated mechanisms.
