Cloud rightsizing tools are software systems that assess and adjust cloud resources to match the actual performance and capacity requirements of workloads. They monitor metrics such as processing power, memory, and storage usage to identify inefficiencies or excess allocations. By optimizing these resources, the tools help maintain balanced cloud infrastructure, reduce waste, control costs, and improve operational efficiency through continuous evaluation of usage patterns and resource demands.
The key components of cloud rightsizing tools include software and services. Cloud rightsizing tool software refers to solutions that analyze cloud resource usage and performance data to automatically recommend or adjust optimal resource configurations for cost efficiency and operational performance. It offers various deployment modes, including on-premises and cloud-based, and is used by small and medium enterprises and large enterprises. It is applied for cost optimization, performance management, resource allocation, and others by several end-users, including banking, financial services, and insurance (BFSI), healthcare, information technology (IT) and telecommunications, retail, manufacturing, and others.
Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report's Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.
The rapid escalation of U.S. tariffs and the resulting trade tensions in spring 2025 are significantly impacting the information technology sector, particularly in hardware manufacturing, data infrastructure, and software deployment. Higher duties on imported semiconductors, circuit boards, and networking equipment have raised production and operational costs for tech firms, cloud service providers, and data centers. Companies relying on globally sourced components for laptops, servers, and consumer electronics are facing longer lead times and increased pricing pressures. In parallel, tariffs on specialized software tools and retaliatory measures from key international markets have disrupted global IT supply chains and reduced overseas demand for U.S.-developed technologies. To navigate these challenges, the sector is accelerating investments in domestic chip fabrication, diversifying supplier bases, and adopting AI-driven automation to enhance operational resilience and cost efficiency.
The cloud rightsizing tools market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides cloud rightsizing tools market statistics, including cloud rightsizing tools industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with a cloud rightsizing tools market share, detailed cloud rightsizing tools market segments, market trends and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the cloud rightsizing tools industry. This cloud rightsizing tools market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry.
The cloud rightsizing tools market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $1.47 billion in 2024 to $1.73 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 17.9%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to rapid adoption of cloud computing across enterprises, rising cloud operational costs, increasing demand for automated resource management, early integration of artificial intelligence and machine learning in cloud platforms, and growing awareness of cloud resource inefficiencies.
The cloud rightsizing tools market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $3.30 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 17.5%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to expansion of multi-cloud and hybrid cloud strategies, advancement of artificial intelligence-driven predictive analytics, increasing emphasis on sustainability and green IT, rising regulatory compliance requirements, and adoption of cloud-native applications. Key trends in the forecast period include integration of real-time optimization tools, growth of subscription-based cloud rightsizing solutions, convergence of software and managed services, emphasis on cost transparency and financial governance, and adoption of hybrid and multi-cloud monitoring platforms.
The rise in digital transformation is expected to drive the growth of the cloud rightsizing tools market going forward. Digital transformation is the broad change through which organizations redesign processes, data flows, and customer experiences by adopting cloud services, software automation, and modern engineering. The rise in digital transformation is due to accelerated enterprise cloud adoption, which shifts workloads from local servers to internet-delivered infrastructure and platforms to gain agility and scalability. The rise in digital transformation benefits cloud rightsizing tools as these platforms convert usage telemetry into actionable sizing, scheduling, and purchasing decisions that maintain high performance while reducing waste and freeing budgets for new initiatives. For instance, in January 2025, according to AAG IT, a UK-based IT services company, an estimated 63% of small and medium-sized business (SMB) workloads and 62% of SMB data were expected to be hosted in public clouds by 2023, up from 57% of workloads and 56% of data in 2022. Therefore, the rise in digital transformation is fueling the growth of the cloud rightsizing tools market.
Key companies operating in the cloud rightsizing tools market are focusing on developing advanced solutions, such as centralized recommendation engines and cross-service aggregation to improve recommendations, reduce manual tuning, and continuously fit resources to real workload demand. Centralized recommendation engines are systems that collect, analyze, and consolidate optimization insights from multiple data sources into a single platform to provide unified, prioritized recommendations for performance and cost efficiency. For instance, on November 26, 2023, Amazon Web Services, a US-based cloud computing company, launched the Cost Optimization Hub. A unique feature of this platform is its ability to aggregate recommendations from multiple AWS sources, including AWS Cost Explorer and AWS Compute Optimizer, into a single unified dashboard. It consolidates insights on rightsizing, idle-resource detection, Graviton migration, purchase and reservation-based savings, and upgrade suggestions for easier analysis. The platform also provides CLI and SDK access to query recommendations and includes deep links to Compute Optimizer for detailed validation. Additionally, it refreshes data daily after an initial 24-hour setup, ensuring teams receive accurate and actionable cost-optimization insights.
In September 2024, IBM Corp., a US-based technology company, acquired Kubecost for an undisclosed amount. Following the acquisition, IBM incorporated Kubecost's container cost management features into its FinOps Suite, enabling a unified view of cloud spending across environments. This integration allows FinOps teams to monitor Kubernetes and cloud billing data more efficiently, helping them optimize workloads and minimize the risk of resource shortages. Kubecost is a US-based company specializing in cloud rightsizing tools.
