ResourceFit is a command-line tool designed to analyze Docker container resource usage and recommend the most cost-effective Amazon Web Services (AWS) EC2 instances based on the container's memory, CPU, and disk space requirements. It fetches real-time container stats, normalizes the data, and compares them against available EC2 instance options, taking AWS EBS storage and pricing into account.
- Host Machine Stats: Collects and displays CPU, memory, disk, and network information from the host machine.
- Docker Container Stats: Analyzes running Docker containers, showing stats like CPU usage, memory consumption, and network I/O.
- EC2 Recommendations: Recommends AWS EC2 instances based on the resource needs of the selected Docker container.
- AWS Pricing Data: Fetches EC2 and EBS pricing data to make cost-efficient recommendations.
- Memory and Disk Space Buffers: Includes customizable memory buffers (50-100%) to ensure recommended instances meet peak resource demands.
To install ResourceFit, follow the steps below:
-
Have python (version 3.9 and above) installed on your device, follow the link below to do this:
https://www.python.org/downloads/
-
Install ResourceFit:
pip install resourcefit
Once installed, you can use resourcefit
from the command line:
resourcefit
The tool will:
- Display a list of running Docker containers.
- Allow you to select a container to analyze.
- Show real-time stats for the selected container (CPU, memory, I/O).
- Fetch and display AWS EC2 and EBS pricing data.
- Recommend the top three EC2 instances based on the selected container's resource usage and disk space requirements.
Select a container to analyze:
1. webapp (ID: 123abc456def) - Image: webapp:latest
2. nginx (ID: 789ghi012jkl) - Image: nginx:latest
Enter the number of the container (default 1) [1]:
Selected Container ID: 123abc456def

ResourceFit requires the following Python libraries:
psutil
: For host machine stats.docker
: For Docker container stats.pandas
: For data handling.requests
: To fetch AWS pricing data.click
: For the command-line interface.
The tool collects basic host machine stats, including CPU count, memory size, disk I/O, and network I/O.
It lists running Docker containers and provides real-time statistics (CPU, memory, and I/O usage) for the selected container.
ResourceFit fetches EC2 and EBS pricing data from AWS for both Linux and Windows instances in the specified region.
Based on the Docker container stats, ResourceFit recommends the top EC2 instances, applying a 50% memory buffer for peak loads. It also factors in disk space requirements for instances with EBS storage.
The default memory buffer factor is set to 1.5 (50% more memory). This can be adjusted in the source code based on your needs.
By default, the AWS region is set to 'US East (N. Virginia)', but this can be modified in the code to support different regions.
