With cloud, you have the flexibility to acquire and use IT resources and services on-demand, which represents a major shift from traditional approaches managing cost. A key first step on your organization’s cloud journey is to establish best practices for cost management in the cloud. AWS' cost optimization techniques help our customers understand cost drivers and effectively manage the cost of running existing application workloads or new ones in the cloud.
This document discusses cost optimization strategies on AWS. It provides examples of cost savings achieved by companies that migrated applications to AWS including a 14 million dollar annual savings for GE. It outlines approaches for architecting efficiently for cost, optimizing usage costs over time, and taking advantage of AWS pricing benefits like reserved instances, spot instances, and different storage options. The document emphasizes optimizing through proactive monitoring and billing tools, leveraging the various EC2 pricing plans, and combining options for further savings.
The document discusses cloud cost optimization strategies. It identifies key pillars for cost optimization including right-sizing resources, leveraging different pricing models, using appropriate storage classes, measuring usage, and designing architectures for cost efficiency. The optimization process involves monitoring usage and costs, identifying unnecessary resources, and establishing a tagging strategy. Key recommendations include turning off idle instances, deleting unused volumes, stopping paid services when not in use, using consolidated billing for discounts, and automating processes. Latest trends discussed are 1ms billing granularity for Lambda and independent provisioning of performance and capacity for EBS volumes.
Learn the best practices and considerations for cost optimising your AWS environment. We will cover best practices for right sizing, scheduling instances to reduce costs, and finally, how you can save up to 75% on OnDemand costs using reserved instances.
Moving from an on-premises environment into AWS is just the start of the journey towards cost optimisation. In this session we’ll look at a range of ways in which our customers can understand their costs and increase their return-on-investment: building the business case; selecting the right models for the right workloads; benefiting from tiered pricing aggregation; using data to drive the choice of AWS services; implementation of intelligent auto-scaling; and, where appropriate, re-platforming to make use of new architectural patterns such as Serverless.
This document provides an overview of AWS pricing models and services. It discusses the different types of pricing for core AWS services including on-demand, reserved, and spot instances. It also covers additional pricing for services like EBS, monitoring, and data transfer. Tools for analyzing and optimizing AWS costs are demonstrated, including the AWS pricing calculator and RightScale's Plan for Cloud. Tips for reading bills and setting pricing alerts are also presented.
The document discusses strategies for optimizing the total cost of ownership (TCO) of cloud infrastructure on AWS compared to on-premises infrastructure. It notes that on-premises infrastructure is typically underutilized and built to support peak capacity rather than average usage. AWS offers several ways to reduce TCO through pay-as-you-go pricing, reserved instances, spot instances, and economies of scale. The document outlines five pillars of cost optimization on AWS: right-sizing instances, increasing elasticity, monitoring usage, choosing the right pricing model, and matching usage to appropriate storage classes.
This document outlines an agenda for an AWS Cost Management workshop. The agenda includes introductions and sessions on AWS Cost Explorer, AWS Budgets, AWS Reservations, and AWS Cost & Usage Reports. It provides overviews of AWS cost management products and highlights recent features including budget redesigns, forecasting enhancements, and reserved instance management updates.

AWS June Webinar Series - Getting Started: Lowering Total Cost of Ownership w...Amazon Web Services
The objective of this webinar is to help customers understand how AWS can help them save money and resources by reducing Total Cost to Ownership (TCO). Comparing cloud costs and economics to on premises and colocation solutions is not always easy and there are multiple factors to take into consideration. In this webinar we will focus on the components of cloud economics, what to measure and we will cover the fundamentals of cost optimization.
Learning Objectives: • Understand the components of TCO analysis • AWS Pricing Fundamentals • Comparing TCO for cloud services vs. on premises/colocation
Who Should Attend: • IT professionals, CIO, Financial Analysts, Consultants
This document discusses strategies for optimizing costs when using AWS. It recommends right-sizing instances to select the cheapest instance that meets performance needs, using reserved instances to reduce costs for steady-state workloads, increasing elasticity by shutting off non-production instances and autoscaling production workloads, and continuously measuring, monitoring and improving resource usage and costs. A case study shows how one company achieved an 85% reduction in compute costs on AWS by right-sizing instances, reserving capacity and gaining visibility into resource usage.
Intended for customers who have (or will have) thousands of instances on AWS, this session is about reducing the complexity of managing costs for these large fleets so they run efficiently. Attendees will learn about common roadblocks that prevent large customers from cost optimizing, tools they can use to efficiently remove those roadblocks, and techniques to monitor their rate of cost optimization. The session will include a case study that will talk in detail about the millions of dollars saved using these techniques. Customers will learn about a range of templates they can use to quickly implement these techniques, and also partners who can help them implement these templates.
Moving from an on-premises environment to AWS is just the start of the journey toward cost optimization. In this session, we explore how customers can understand their costs and increase their return-on-investment. This includes building a business case; demonstrating how to select the right models for the right workloads; discussing how to take advantage of tiered pricing aggregation; and highlighting how to implement intelligent auto-scaling. It’s all about using data to drive a cost-conscious design approach in architecting for the cloud.

David Lurie presents on cloud economics and the financial case for cloud migration. He discusses how AWS addresses total cost of ownership (TCO) through services that allow customers to optimize costs, such as paying for what they use without overprovisioning, reserving instances long-term for discounts, and using spot instances for reduced costs. AWS aims to continually lower prices through economies of scale and passing savings to customers. Customers can optimize costs through right-sizing instances, increasing elasticity, using the appropriate pricing models, optimizing storage, and serverless architectures.
This document discusses approaches for building an economic case for moving workloads to the AWS cloud to optimize costs. It introduces total cost of ownership analysis to compare on-premises and cloud costs. The four pillars of cost optimization on AWS are outlined as right-sizing instances, using reserved instances, increasing infrastructure elasticity, and continuously measuring and improving. Case studies demonstrate how companies have optimized costs through reserving instances and right-sizing workloads. Governance approaches like cost optimization dashboards and centers are recommended to create transparency and drive optimization.
Intended for customers who have (or will have) thousands of instances on AWS, this session is about reducing the complexity of managing costs for these large fleets so they run efficiently. Attendees will learn about common roadblocks that prevent large customers from cost optimizing, tools they can use to efficiently remove those roadblocks, and techniques to monitor their rate of cost optimization. The session will include a case study that will talk in detail about the millions of dollars saved using these techniques. Customers will learn about a range of templates they can use to quickly implement these techniques, and also partners who can help them implement these templates.
The document discusses strategies for optimizing costs when using AWS. It covers evaluating total cost of ownership (TCO) between on-premises infrastructure and AWS. Key strategies for lowering costs on AWS include reducing overprovisioning using auto scaling and elasticity, choosing the appropriate pricing models like reserved instances and spot instances, right-sizing instances, and monitoring usage to optimize storage costs. The document emphasizes that AWS pricing continually decreases due to economies of scale, and provides various tools to help customers optimize costs.
This document discusses the total cost of ownership (TCO) analysis when comparing running infrastructure on-premises versus on AWS. It outlines benefits of AWS like automatic upgrades, managed services that reduce operational tasks, and analysts showing AWS reduces costs over the long term. When performing a TCO, stakeholders from different departments should be involved to avoid problematic comparisons. Cost optimization on AWS involves right sizing instances, using reserved instances, increasing elasticity, and ongoing monitoring to reduce costs over time. Migrating workloads to AWS also incurs upfront costs that are recouped over time through yearly cost savings.
