AWS Cost
Optimization: Best
Practices and Checklist
AWS or Amazon Web Services has many services and
solutions to help you in your business journey.
When you are moving to AWS from on-premises, you
do not have to pay the costs upfront. You only have to
pay for what you use and provision resources on an
as-need basis.
The best way is to start implementing AWS cost
optimization practices early on so that you can scale it
as your business grows.
5 design principles
of AWS cost
optimization
Implement cloud financial
management in the
organization.
Investing in cloud financial management is the
first step to achieving financial success and
faster realization of business value in the cloud.
Adopt the right consumption
model
You only have to pay for what you use on the cloud.
Design your cloud environment to increase or
decrease the usage of resources based on the
requirements.
Measure the overall
efficiency of the workloads
Measure the business output and the associated cost
of delivery for every workload and use the data to
understand the gains that you can obtain by increasing
functionality and output or by decreasing costs.
Do not spend money on
undifferentiated heavy lifting
AWS does the heavy lifting for data center operations
like racking, stacking, and powering servers, and also
does operational tasks with managed services such as
managing operating systems and applications.
Analyze and attribute
expenditure
To increase transparency, accurately identify the cost and
usage of workloads and attribute IT costs to revenue
streams and individual workload owners. You can
calculate the return on investment (ROI) and help
workload owners optimise their resources and cut costs.
Best practices of AWS
cost optimization
Set up your AWS account to optimize
costs
Choose the right pricing model
Right size capacity based on demand
Set processes to identify wastage of
resources
By optimizing your AWS resource usage and costs,
you can reinvest in more resources that will help
your business grow. Our cloud experts can ensure
that you are only paying for what you use in AWS
and that you are investing in the right resources.
