<p>
The statistic of the utilization metric.
</p>
<p>
The Compute Optimizer API, Command Line Interface (CLI), and SDKs return utilization metrics using only the
<code>Maximum</code> statistic, which is the highest value observed during the specified period.
</p>
<p>
The Compute Optimizer console displays graphs for some utilization metrics using the <code>Average</code>
statistic, which is the value of <code>Sum</code> / <code>SampleCount</code> during the specified period. For
more information, see <a

recommendations</a> in the <i>Compute Optimizer User Guide</i>. You can also get averaged utilization metric data
for your resources using Amazon CloudWatch. For more information, see the <a
