## Overview

The Kubex catalog map allows you to view a range of recommended instance type options. The map view shows the AWS or Azure catalog scored for your selected workload using Densify's analytics. Filters allow you to limit the catalog based on items such as processor type, processor features and instance cost.

<Accordion title="Video: Using the Catalog Map">
  <iframe allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen" class="vidyard_iframe" frameborder="0" height="360" mozallowfullscreen="mozallowfullscreen" msallowfullscreen="msallowfullscreen" oallowfullscreen="oallowfullscreen" src="https://player.vimeo.com/video/939643302" webkitallowfullscreen="webkitallowfullscreen" width="630" />
</Accordion>

When used with the corresponding API endpoint, you can automate the selection of the best instance types for your workloads. See [Systems: Analysis Details](/docs-api/WebHelp_Densify_API_Cloud/Content/API_Guide/Systems_Analysis_Details).

<Note>
  The catalog map is not currently available for AWS ASGs, VM Scale Sets with Max Size ≥ 1 or GCP cloud instances.

### Page Navigation

Access the catalog map from the [Instance Optimization Details](./Understanding_the_Instance_Details_Report) page for AWS and Azure cloud instance details.

  </Frame>
</Accordion>

Clicking the hyperlink opens the catalog map showing the selected instance. The page opens with either the default or saved filter settings, if you are within the same session.

Use the back button in the top-right corner of the page to return to the parent Instance Optimization Details page. Do not use the browser's back button for navigation within Kubex as this exits Densify.

### Catalog Map Controls

When you select an instance on the Instance Optimization Details page, the catalog map is populated with the analysis results for that selected instance. You can select another service using the Services dropdown or return to the Instance Optimization Details page.

When you open the catalog map, the instance that was selected in the Instance Optimization Details page, is displayed. The cloud provider's catalog options and the available instance sizes and their scores for the selected workload comprise the catalog map

You can configure what data you want to view for this instance using the controls at the top of the page.

### Catalog Map Legend

The score shown in each cell in the catalog map is based on the current utilization and Densify's analyses results. These calculations account for both compatibility of the workload with an instance type's features and its monthly cost.

All instances that have been evaluated are displayed with their score displayed in colour-coded squares:

### Summary Table

A summary table showing details of the current and recommended (optimal) instance type is displayed below the catalog map.

Click the "See More" link to see additional details for both instances.
