Abstract
A system that provides intelligent shutdown of a resource when the resource is idle for a set period of time. A set of rules may be configured to determine when to shut down the resource, in what order, how to handle traffic when a resource is shut down, and how to startup resources that have been previously shut down when demand requires it. In addition to setting an idle time at which point to shut down the resource, the type of shutdown may be configured. Dependencies may be configured, which indicate how the resource should be shut down or powered up with respect to other resources. A user interface may be used to configure rules, and a dashboard may be provided to see the current status and cost savings information for a set of resources for a system.
