Correct answer: Use AWS Compute Optimizer to generate EBS volume recommendations for optimization..
Why this is the answer
AWS Compute Optimizer analyzes historical utilization metrics for EC2 instances and EBS volumes to recommend optimal resource configurations, including EBS volume types and sizes. It provides estimated monthly savings, directly addressing the requirement for cost optimization and savings estimation. Amazon Inspector focuses on security vulnerabilities and compliance, not cost optimization for EBS volumes. AWS Systems Manager provides operational insights and automation, but it doesn't inherently generate cost optimization recommendations for EBS volumes. Amazon CloudWatch monitors metrics, which can be used as input for analysis, but CloudWatch itself does not generate optimization recommendations or estimated savings for EBS volumes.
