Cost optimisation in AWS is important, but also hard! We will explain why understanding cost helps you not only save money but use the cloud smarter. We'll talk you through how to review and reduce costs and then cover some advanced topics, like querying the Cost and Usage Report (CUR) with Athena. We'll discuss some eye opening moments we've see with customers in certain services and some hints and tips on how to improve your knowledge and take advantage of AWS billing.

Devops means giving a shit about your job
enough to want to learn all the parts and
not just your little world.
