# /specweave-cost-optimizer:cost-analyze
|
||||
|
||||
Analyze cloud infrastructure costs and identify optimization opportunities across AWS, Azure, and GCP.
|
||||
|
||||
You are an expert FinOps engineer who performs comprehensive cost analysis for cloud infrastructure.
|
||||
|
||||
## Your Task
|
||||
|
||||
Perform deep cost analysis of cloud resources and generate actionable optimization recommendations.
|
||||
|
||||
### 1. Cost Analysis Scope
|
||||
|
||||
**Multi-Cloud Support**:
|
||||
- AWS (EC2, Lambda, S3, RDS, DynamoDB, ECS/EKS, CloudFront)
|
||||
- Azure (VMs, Functions, Storage, SQL, Cosmos DB, AKS, CDN)
|
||||
- GCP (Compute Engine, Cloud Functions, Cloud Storage, Cloud SQL, GKE, Cloud CDN)
|
||||
|
||||
**Analysis Dimensions**:
|
||||
- Resource utilization vs capacity
|
||||
- Reserved vs on-demand pricing
|
||||
- Right-sizing opportunities
|
||||
- Idle resource detection
|
||||
- Storage lifecycle policies
|
||||
- Data transfer costs
|
||||
- Region pricing differences
|
||||
|
||||
### 2. Data Collection Methods
|
||||
|
||||
**AWS Cost Explorer**:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Get cost and usage data
|
||||
aws ce get-cost-and-usage \
|
||||
--time-period Start=2025-01-01,End=2025-01-31 \
|
||||
--granularity DAILY \
|
||||
--metrics BlendedCost \
|
||||
--group-by Type=SERVICE
|
||||
|
||||
# Get right-sizing recommendations
|
||||
aws ce get-rightsizing-recommendation \
|
||||
--service AmazonEC2 \
|
||||
--page-size 100
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Azure Cost Management**:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Get cost details
|
||||
az consumption usage list \
|
||||
--start-date 2025-01-01 \
|
||||
--end-date 2025-01-31
|
||||
|
||||
# Get advisor recommendations
|
||||
az advisor recommendation list \
|
||||
--category Cost
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**GCP Billing API**:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Export billing to BigQuery
|
||||
# Then query:
|
||||
SELECT
|
||||
service.description as service,
|
||||
SUM(cost) as total_cost
|
||||
FROM `project.dataset.gcp_billing_export`
|
||||
WHERE _PARTITIONDATE >= '2025-01-01'
|
||||
GROUP BY service
|
||||
ORDER BY total_cost DESC
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### 3. Analysis Framework
|
||||
|
||||
**Step 1: Resource Inventory**
|
||||
- List all compute instances (EC2, VMs, Compute Engine)
|
||||
- Identify database resources (RDS, SQL, Cloud SQL)
|
||||
- Catalog storage (S3, Blob, Cloud Storage)
|
||||
- Map serverless functions (Lambda, Functions, Cloud Functions)
|
||||
- Document networking (Load Balancers, NAT Gateways, VPN)
|
||||
|
||||
**Step 2: Utilization Analysis**
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
interface ResourceUtilization {
|
||||
resourceId: string;
|
||||
resourceType: string;
|
||||
cpu: {
|
||||
average: number;
|
||||
peak: number;
|
||||
p95: number;
|
||||
};
|
||||
memory: {
|
||||
average: number;
|
||||
peak: number;
|
||||
p95: number;
|
||||
};
|
||||
recommendation: 'downsize' | 'rightsize' | 'optimal' | 'upsize';
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// Example thresholds
|
||||
const THRESHOLDS = {
|
||||
cpu: {
|
||||
idle: 5, // < 5% CPU = idle
|
||||
underused: 20, // < 20% CPU = undersized
|
||||
optimal: 70, // 20-70% = optimal
|
||||
overused: 85, // > 85% = needs upsize
|
||||
},
|
||||
memory: {
|
||||
idle: 10,
|
||||
underused: 30,
|
||||
optimal: 75,
|
||||
overused: 90,
|
||||
},
|
||||
};
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Step 3: Cost Breakdown**
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
interface CostBreakdown {
|
||||
total: number;
|
||||
byService: Record<string, number>;
|
||||
byEnvironment: Record<string, number>;
|
||||
byTeam: Record<string, number>;
|
||||
trends: {
|
||||
mom: number; // month-over-month %
|
||||
yoy: number; // year-over-year %
|
||||
};
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### 4. Optimization Opportunities
|
||||
|
||||
**Compute Optimization**:
|
||||
- **Idle Resources**: Instances with < 5% CPU for 7+ days
|
||||
- **Right-sizing**: Over-provisioned instances (< 20% utilization)
|
||||
- **Reserved Instances**: Steady-state workloads (> 70% usage)
|
||||
- **Spot/Preemptible**: Fault-tolerant, stateless workloads
|
||||
- **Auto-scaling**: Variable workloads with predictable patterns
|
||||
|
||||
**Storage Optimization**:
|
||||
- **Lifecycle Policies**: Move to cheaper tiers (S3 IA, Glacier, Archive)
|
||||
- **Compression**: Enable compression for text/logs
|
||||
- **Deduplication**: Remove duplicate data
|
||||
- **Snapshots**: Delete old AMIs, EBS snapshots, disk snapshots
|
||||
- **Data Transfer**: Use CDN, optimize cross-region transfers
|
||||
|
||||
**Database Optimization**:
|
||||
- **Right-sizing**: Analyze IOPS, connections, memory usage
|
||||
- **Reserved Capacity**: RDS/SQL Reserved Instances
|
||||
- **Serverless Options**: Aurora Serverless, Cosmos DB serverless
|
||||
- **Read Replicas**: Offload read traffic
|
||||
- **Backup Retention**: Optimize backup storage costs
|
||||
|
||||
**Serverless Optimization**:
|
||||
- **Memory Allocation**: Lambda/Functions memory vs execution time
|
||||
- **Concurrency**: Optimize for cold starts vs cost
|
||||
- **VPC Configuration**: Avoid VPC Lambda unless needed (adds NAT costs)
|
||||
- **Invocation Patterns**: Batch vs streaming, sync vs async
|
||||
|
||||
### 5. Savings Calculations
|
||||
|
||||
**Reserved Instance Savings**:
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
interface RISavings {
|
||||
currentOnDemandCost: number;
|
||||
riCost: number;
|
||||
upfrontCost: number;
|
||||
monthlySavings: number;
|
||||
annualSavings: number;
|
||||
paybackPeriod: number; // months
|
||||
roi: number; // %
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// Example: AWS EC2 Reserved Instance
|
||||
const onDemandCost = 0.096 * 730; // t3.large on-demand/month
|
||||
const ri1Year = 0.062 * 730; // t3.large 1-year RI
|
||||
const savings = onDemandCost - ri1Year; // $24.82/month = $297.84/year
|
||||
const savingsPercent = (savings / onDemandCost) * 100; // 35%
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Spot Instance Savings**:
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
// Spot instances can save 50-90%
|
||||
const onDemand = 0.096; // t3.large
|
||||
const spot = 0.0288; // typical spot price (70% discount)
|
||||
const savings = 1 - (spot / onDemand); // 70% savings
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Storage Tier Savings**:
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
// S3 pricing (us-east-1, per GB/month)
|
||||
const pricing = {
|
||||
standard: 0.023,
|
||||
ia: 0.0125, // Infrequent Access (54% cheaper)
|
||||
glacier: 0.004, // Glacier (83% cheaper)
|
||||
deepArchive: 0.00099, // Deep Archive (96% cheaper)
|
||||
};
|
||||
|
||||
// For 1TB rarely accessed data
|
||||
const cost_standard = 1024 * 0.023; // $23.55/month
|
||||
const cost_ia = 1024 * 0.0125; // $12.80/month
|
||||
const savings = cost_standard - cost_ia; // $10.75/month = $129/year
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### 6. Report Structure
|
||||
|
||||
**Executive Summary**:
|
||||

```
|
||||
|
||||
**Detailed Recommendations**:
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
### 1. Compute Optimization ($6,200/month savings)
|
||||
|
||||
#### Idle EC2 Instances (15 instances, $2,100/month)
|
||||
- **prod-app-server-7**: $140/month (< 2% CPU for 30 days)
|
||||
- **dev-test-server-3**: $96/month (stopped 28/30 days)
|
||||
- [See full list...]
|
||||
|
||||
**Action**: Terminate or stop unused instances
|
||||
|
||||
#### Over-provisioned Instances (32 instances, $4,100/month)
|
||||
- **prod-web-01**: c5.2xlarge → c5.xlarge (saves $145/month)
|
||||
- Current: 8 vCPU, 16GB RAM, 15% CPU avg
|
||||
- Recommended: 4 vCPU, 8GB RAM
|
||||
- **prod-api-05**: m5.4xlarge → m5.2xlarge (saves $280/month)
|
||||
- Current: 16 vCPU, 64GB RAM, 22% CPU avg, 35% memory avg
|
||||
- Recommended: 8 vCPU, 32GB RAM
|
||||
|
||||
**Action**: Resize instances during next maintenance window
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### 7. Cost Forecasting
|
||||
|
||||
**Trend Analysis**:
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
interface CostForecast {
|
||||
historical: Array<{ month: string; cost: number }>;
|
||||
forecast: Array<{ month: string; cost: number; confidence: number }>;
|
||||
assumptions: string[];
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// Simple linear regression for trend
|
||||
function forecastCost(historicalData: number[]): number {
|
||||
const n = historicalData.length;
|
||||
const sumX = (n * (n + 1)) / 2;
|
||||
const sumY = historicalData.reduce((a, b) => a + b, 0);
|
||||
const sumXY = historicalData.reduce((sum, y, x) => sum + (x + 1) * y, 0);
|
||||
const sumX2 = (n * (n + 1) * (2 * n + 1)) / 6;
|
||||
|
||||
const slope = (n * sumXY - sumX * sumY) / (n * sumX2 - sumX * sumX);
|
||||
const intercept = (sumY - slope * sumX) / n;
|
||||
|
||||
return slope * (n + 1) + intercept; // next month
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### 8. Budget Alerts
|
||||
|
||||
**Threshold-based Alerts**:
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
budgets:
|
||||
- name: "Production Environment"
|
||||
monthly_budget: 30000
|
||||
alerts:
|
||||
- threshold: 80% # $24,000
|
||||
action: "Email team leads"
|
||||
- threshold: 90% # $27,000
|
||||
action: "Email engineering + finance"
|
||||
- threshold: 100% # $30,000
|
||||
action: "Alert on-call + freeze non-critical deploys"
|
||||
|
||||
- name: "Development Environment"
|
||||
monthly_budget: 5000
|
||||
alerts:
|
||||
- threshold: 100%
|
||||
action: "Auto-stop non-essential instances"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### 9. Tagging Strategy
|
||||
|
||||
**Cost Allocation Tags**:
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
required_tags:
|
||||
- Environment: [prod, staging, dev, test]
|
||||
- Team: [platform, api, frontend, data]
|
||||
- Project: [project-alpha, project-beta]
|
||||
- CostCenter: [engineering, product, ops]
|
||||
- Owner: [email]
|
||||
|
||||
enforcement:
|
||||
- Deny instance launch without tags (AWS Config rule)
|
||||
- Monthly report of untagged resources
|
||||
- Auto-tag based on stack/subnet (Terraform)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### 10. FinOps Best Practices
|
||||
|
||||
**Cost Visibility**:
|
||||
- Daily cost dashboard (Grafana, CloudWatch, Azure Monitor)
|
||||
- Weekly cost review with team leads
|
||||
- Monthly FinOps meeting with stakeholders
|
||||
- Quarterly budget planning
|
||||
|
||||
**Cost Accountability**:
|
||||
- Chargeback model per team/project
|
||||
- Show-back reports for visibility
|
||||
- Cost-aware deployment pipelines (estimate before deploy)
|
||||
- Engineer access to cost dashboard
|
||||
|
||||
**Continuous Optimization**:
|
||||
- Automated right-sizing recommendations (weekly)
|
||||
- Savings plan utilization review (monthly)
|
||||
- Spot instance adoption tracking
|
||||
- Reserved instance coverage reports
|
||||
|
||||
## Workflow
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Collect Data**: Pull cost/usage data from cloud providers (last 30-90 days)
|
||||
2. **Analyze Utilization**: Calculate CPU, memory, disk, network metrics
|
||||
3. **Identify Waste**: Find idle, over-provisioned, orphaned resources
|
||||
4. **Calculate Savings**: Quantify potential savings per recommendation
|
||||
5. **Prioritize**: Rank by savings potential and implementation effort
|
||||
6. **Generate Report**: Create executive summary + detailed action plan
|
||||
7. **Track Progress**: Monitor adoption of recommendations
|
||||
|
||||
## Example Usage
|
||||
|
||||
**User**: "Analyze our AWS costs for January 2025"
|
||||
|
||||
**Response**:
|
||||
- Pulls AWS Cost Explorer data
|
||||
- Analyzes EC2, RDS, S3, Lambda usage
|
||||
- Identifies $12K/month in optimization opportunities:
|
||||
- $6K: Right-size EC2 instances (15 instances)
|
||||
- $4K: Purchase RDS Reserved Instances (3 databases)
|
||||
- $1.5K: S3 lifecycle policies (200GB → Glacier)
|
||||
- $500: Delete orphaned EBS snapshots
|
||||
- Provides detailed implementation plan
|
||||
- Estimates 12-month savings: $144K
|
||||
|
||||
## When to Use
|
||||
|
||||
- Monthly/quarterly cost reviews
|
||||
- Budget overrun investigations
|
||||
- Pre-purchase Reserved Instance planning
|
||||
- Architecture cost optimization
|
||||
- New project cost estimation
|
||||
- Post-incident cost spike analysis
|
||||

||||
|
||||
## Your Task
|
||||
|
||||
Implement cost optimization recommendations with safety checks, rollback plans, and cost tracking.
|
||||
|
||||
### 1. Optimization Categories
|
||||

|
||||
- Migrate to reserved instances
|
||||
- Convert EBS types (gp2 → gp3)
|
||||
- Database version upgrades
|
||||
|
||||
**Long-term Actions (Architecture Changes)**:
|
||||
- Migrate to serverless
|
||||
- Implement auto-scaling
|
||||
- Multi-region optimization
|
||||
- Spot/preemptible adoption
|
||||
|
||||
### 2. Safety Framework
|
||||
|
||||
**Pre-optimization Checks**:
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
interface SafetyCheck {
|
||||
resourceId: string;
|
||||
checks: {
|
||||
hasBackup: boolean;
|
||||
hasMonitoring: boolean;
|
||||
hasRollbackPlan: boolean;
|
||||
impactAssessment: 'none' | 'low' | 'medium' | 'high';
|
||||
stakeholderApproval: boolean;
|
||||
};
|
||||
canProceed: boolean;
|
||||
blockers: string[];
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// Example safety check
|
||||
async function canOptimize(resource: Resource): Promise<SafetyCheck> {
|
||||
const checks = {
|
||||
hasBackup: await hasRecentBackup(resource),
|
||||
hasMonitoring: await hasActiveAlarms(resource),
|
||||
hasRollbackPlan: true, // Manual rollback documented
|
||||
impactAssessment: assessImpact(resource),
|
||||
stakeholderApproval: resource.tags.ApprovedForOptimization === 'true',
|
||||
};
|
||||
|
||||
const blockers = [];
|
||||
if (!checks.hasBackup) blockers.push('Missing backup');
|
||||
if (!checks.hasMonitoring) blockers.push('No monitoring alarms');
|
||||
if (checks.impactAssessment === 'high' && !checks.stakeholderApproval) {
|
||||
blockers.push('Requires stakeholder approval');
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
return {
|
||||
resourceId: resource.id,
|
||||
checks,
|
||||
canProceed: blockers.length === 0,
|
||||
blockers,
|
||||
};
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Rollback Plans**:
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
interface RollbackPlan {
|
||||
optimizationId: string;
|
||||
originalState: any;
|
||||
rollbackSteps: Array<{
|
||||
action: string;
|
||||
command: string;
|
||||
estimatedTime: number;
|
||||
}>;
|
||||
rollbackWindow: number; // hours
|
||||
contactInfo: string[];
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// Example: EC2 instance resize rollback
|
||||
const rollback: RollbackPlan = {
|
||||
optimizationId: 'opt-001',
|
||||
originalState: {
|
||||
instanceType: 'c5.2xlarge',
|
||||
instanceId: 'i-1234567890abcdef0',
|
||||
},
|
||||
rollbackSteps: [
|
||||
{
|
||||
action: 'Stop instance',
|
||||
command: 'aws ec2 stop-instances --instance-ids i-1234567890abcdef0',
|
||||
estimatedTime: 2,
|
||||
},
|
||||
{
|
||||
action: 'Resize to original',
|
||||
command: 'aws ec2 modify-instance-attribute --instance-id i-1234567890abcdef0 --instance-type c5.2xlarge',
|
||||
estimatedTime: 1,
|
||||
},
|
||||
{
|
||||
action: 'Start instance',
|
||||
command: 'aws ec2 start-instances --instance-ids i-1234567890abcdef0',
|
||||
estimatedTime: 3,
|
||||
},
|
||||
],
|
||||
rollbackWindow: 24,
|
||||
contactInfo: ['oncall@example.com', 'platform-team@example.com'],
|
||||
};
|
||||
```

||||
|
||||
### 3. Optimization Actions
|
||||
|
||||
**Right-size EC2 Instance**:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
#!/bin/bash
|
||||
# Right-size EC2 instance with safety checks
|
||||
|
||||
INSTANCE_ID="i-1234567890abcdef0"
|
||||
NEW_TYPE="c5.xlarge"
|
||||
OLD_TYPE=$(aws ec2 describe-instances --instance-ids $INSTANCE_ID --query 'Reservations[0].Instances[0].InstanceType' --output text)
|
||||
|
||||
# 1. Create AMI backup
|
||||
echo "Creating backup AMI..."
|
||||
AMI_ID=$(aws ec2 create-image --instance-id $INSTANCE_ID --name "backup-before-resize-$(date +%Y%m%d)" --no-reboot --output text)
|
||||
echo "AMI created: $AMI_ID"
|
||||
|
||||
# 2. Wait for AMI to be available
|
||||
aws ec2 wait image-available --image-ids $AMI_ID
|
||||
|
||||
# 3. Stop instance
|
||||
echo "Stopping instance..."
|
||||
aws ec2 stop-instances --instance-ids $INSTANCE_ID
|
||||
aws ec2 wait instance-stopped --instance-ids $INSTANCE_ID
|
||||
|
||||
# 4. Modify instance type
|
||||
echo "Resizing $OLD_TYPE -> $NEW_TYPE..."
|
||||
aws ec2 modify-instance-attribute --instance-id $INSTANCE_ID --instance-type "{\"Value\":\"$NEW_TYPE\"}"
|
||||
|
||||
# 5. Start instance
|
||||
echo "Starting instance..."
|
||||
aws ec2 start-instances --instance-ids $INSTANCE_ID
|
||||
aws ec2 wait instance-running --instance-ids $INSTANCE_ID
|
||||
|
||||
# 6. Health check
|
||||
sleep 30
|
||||
HEALTH=$(aws ec2 describe-instance-status --instance-ids $INSTANCE_ID --query 'InstanceStatuses[0].InstanceStatus.Status' --output text)
|
||||
|
||||
if [ "$HEALTH" = "ok" ]; then
|
||||
echo "✅ Resize successful!"
|
||||
else
|
||||
echo "❌ Health check failed. Rolling back..."
|
||||
# Rollback logic here
|
||||
fi
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Purchase Reserved Instances**:
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
interface RIPurchase {
|
||||
instanceType: string;
|
||||
count: number;
|
||||
term: '1year' | '3year';
|
||||
paymentOption: 'all-upfront' | 'partial-upfront' | 'no-upfront';
|
||||
estimatedSavings: number;
|
||||
breakEvenMonths: number;
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// Example RI purchase decision
|
||||
const riRecommendation: RIPurchase = {
|
||||
instanceType: 't3.large',
|
||||
count: 10, // Running 10 steady-state instances
|
||||
term: '1year',
|
||||
paymentOption: 'partial-upfront',
|
||||
estimatedSavings: 3500, // $3,500/year
|
||||
breakEvenMonths: 4,
|
||||
};
|
||||
|
||||
// Purchase command
|
||||
aws ec2 purchase-reserved-instances-offering \
|
||||
--reserved-instances-offering-id <offering-id> \
|
||||
--instance-count 10
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Implement S3 Lifecycle Policy**:
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
const lifecyclePolicy = {
|
||||
Rules: [
|
||||
{
|
||||
Id: 'Move old logs to Glacier',
|
||||
Status: 'Enabled',
|
||||
Filter: { Prefix: 'logs/' },
|
||||
Transitions: [
|
||||
{
|
||||
Days: 30,
|
||||
StorageClass: 'STANDARD_IA', // Infrequent Access after 30 days
|
||||
},
|
||||
{
|
||||
Days: 90,
|
||||
StorageClass: 'GLACIER', // Glacier after 90 days
|
||||
},
|
||||
{
|
||||
Days: 365,
|
||||
StorageClass: 'DEEP_ARCHIVE', // Deep Archive after 1 year
|
||||
},
|
||||
],
|
||||
Expiration: {
|
||||
Days: 2555, // Delete after 7 years
|
||||
},
|
||||
},
|
||||
{
|
||||
Id: 'Delete incomplete multipart uploads',
|
||||
Status: 'Enabled',
|
||||
AbortIncompleteMultipartUpload: {
|
||||
DaysAfterInitiation: 7,
|
||||
},
|
||||
},
|
||||
],
|
||||
};
|
||||
|
||||
// Apply policy
|
||||
aws s3api put-bucket-lifecycle-configuration \
|
||||
--bucket my-bucket \
|
||||
--lifecycle-configuration file://lifecycle-policy.json
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Delete Orphaned Resources**:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
#!/bin/bash
|
||||
# Find and delete orphaned EBS snapshots
|
||||
|
||||
echo "Finding orphaned snapshots..."
|
||||
|
||||
# Get all snapshots owned by account
|
||||
SNAPSHOTS=$(aws ec2 describe-snapshots --owner-ids self --query 'Snapshots[*].[SnapshotId,Description,VolumeId,StartTime]' --output text)
|
||||
|
||||
# Check each snapshot
|
||||
while IFS=$'\t' read -r SNAP_ID DESC VOL_ID START_TIME; do
|
||||
# Check if source volume still exists
|
||||
if ! aws ec2 describe-volumes --volume-ids "$VOL_ID" &>/dev/null; then
|
||||
AGE_DAYS=$(( ($(date +%s) - $(date -d "$START_TIME" +%s)) / 86400 ))
|
||||
|
||||
if [ $AGE_DAYS -gt 90 ]; then
|
||||
echo "Orphaned snapshot: $SNAP_ID (age: $AGE_DAYS days)"
|
||||
echo " Description: $DESC"
|
||||
echo " Volume: $VOL_ID (deleted)"
|
||||
|
||||
# Dry run (remove --dry-run to execute)
|
||||
# aws ec2 delete-snapshot --snapshot-id "$SNAP_ID"
|
||||
fi
|
||||
fi
|
||||
done <<< "$SNAPSHOTS"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### 4. Serverless Optimization
|
||||
|
||||
**Lambda Memory Optimization**:
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
// AWS Lambda Power Tuning
|
||||
// Uses AWS Lambda Power Tuning tool to find optimal memory
|
||||
|
||||
interface PowerTuningResult {
|
||||
functionName: string;
|
||||
currentConfig: {
|
||||
memory: number;
|
||||
avgDuration: number;
|
||||
avgCost: number;
|
||||
};
|
||||
optimalConfig: {
|
||||
memory: number;
|
||||
avgDuration: number;
|
||||
avgCost: number;
|
||||
};
|
||||
savings: {
|
||||
costReduction: number; // %
|
||||
durationReduction: number; // %
|
||||
monthlySavings: number; // $
|
||||
};
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// Example optimization
|
||||
const result: PowerTuningResult = {
|
||||
functionName: 'processImage',
|
||||
currentConfig: {
|
||||
memory: 1024, // MB
|
||||
avgDuration: 3200, // ms
|
||||
avgCost: 0.0000133, // per invocation
|
||||
},
|
||||
optimalConfig: {
|
||||
memory: 2048, // More memory = faster CPU
|
||||
avgDuration: 1800, // 44% faster
|
||||
avgCost: 0.0000119, // 11% cheaper
|
||||
},
|
||||
savings: {
|
||||
costReduction: 10.5,
|
||||
durationReduction: 43.8,
|
||||
monthlySavings: 142, // 1M invocations/month
|
||||
},
|
||||
};
|
||||
|
||||
// Apply optimization
|
||||
aws lambda update-function-configuration \
|
||||
--function-name processImage \
|
||||
--memory-size 2048
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### 5. Cost Tracking & Validation
|
||||
|
||||
**Pre/Post Optimization Comparison**:
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
interface OptimizationResult {
|
||||
optimizationId: string;
|
||||
implementationDate: Date;
|
||||
resource: string;
|
||||
action: string;
|
||||
preOptimization: {
|
||||
cost: number;
|
||||
metrics: Record<string, number>;
|
||||
};
|
||||
postOptimization: {
|
||||
cost: number;
|
||||
metrics: Record<string, number>;
|
||||
};
|
||||
actualSavings: number;
|
||||
projectedSavings: number;
|
||||
varianceExplanation: string;
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// Track for 30 days post-optimization
|
||||
async function validateOptimization(optId: string): Promise<OptimizationResult> {
|
||||
const baseline = await getCostBaseline(optId, 'before');
|
||||
const current = await getCostBaseline(optId, 'after');
|
||||
|
||||
const actualSavings = baseline.cost - current.cost;
|
||||
const variance = (actualSavings / projectedSavings - 1) * 100;
|
||||
|
||||
return {
|
||||
optimizationId: optId,
|
||||
implementationDate: new Date('2025-01-15'),
|
||||
resource: 'i-1234567890abcdef0',
|
||||
action: 'Right-size: c5.2xlarge → c5.xlarge',
|
||||
preOptimization: baseline,
|
||||
postOptimization: current,
|
||||
actualSavings,
|
||||
projectedSavings: 145,
|
||||
varianceExplanation: variance > 10
|
||||
? 'Higher traffic than baseline period'
|
||||
: 'Within expected range',
|
||||
};
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### 6. Automation Scripts
|
||||
|
||||
**Auto-Stop Dev/Test Instances**:
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
// Lambda function to auto-stop instances outside business hours
|
||||
export async function autoStopDevInstances() {
|
||||
const now = new Date();
|
||||
const hour = now.getHours();
|
||||
const day = now.getDay();
|
||||
|
||||
// Outside business hours (6pm-8am weekdays, all weekend)
|
||||
const isOffHours = hour < 8 || hour >= 18 || day === 0 || day === 6;
|
||||
|
||||
if (!isOffHours) return;
|
||||
|
||||
// Find running dev/test instances
|
||||
const instances = await ec2.describeInstances({
|
||||
Filters: [
|
||||
{ Name: 'tag:Environment', Values: ['dev', 'test'] },
|
||||
{ Name: 'instance-state-name', Values: ['running'] },
|
||||
{ Name: 'tag:AutoStop', Values: ['true'] },
|
||||
],
|
||||
}).promise();
|
||||
|
||||
const instanceIds = instances.Reservations
|
||||
.flatMap(r => r.Instances || [])
|
||||
.map(i => i.InstanceId!);
|
||||
|
||||
if (instanceIds.length > 0) {
|
||||
await ec2.stopInstances({ InstanceIds: instanceIds }).promise();
|
||||
console.log(`Stopped ${instanceIds.length} dev/test instances`);
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// Schedule: Run every hour
|
||||
// CloudWatch Events: cron(0 * * * ? *)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### 7. Optimization Dashboard
|
||||
|
||||
**Cost Savings Dashboard**:
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
interface SavingsDashboard {
|
||||
period: string;
|
||||
totalSavings: number;
|
||||
savingsByCategory: {
|
||||
compute: number;
|
||||
storage: number;
|
||||
database: number;
|
||||
network: number;
|
||||
other: number;
|
||||
};
|
||||
topOptimizations: Array<{
|
||||
description: string;
|
||||
savings: number;
|
||||
status: 'completed' | 'in-progress' | 'planned';
|
||||
}>;
|
||||
roi: number;
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// Monthly dashboard
|
||||
const dashboard: SavingsDashboard = {
|
||||
period: 'January 2025',
|
||||
totalSavings: 12450,
|
||||
savingsByCategory: {
|
||||
compute: 6200,
|
||||
storage: 1800,
|
||||
database: 3500,
|
||||
network: 750,
|
||||
other: 200,
|
||||
},
|
||||
topOptimizations: [
|
||||
{
|
||||
description: 'Right-sized 32 EC2 instances',
|
||||
savings: 4100,
|
||||
status: 'completed',
|
||||
},
|
||||
{
|
||||
description: 'Purchased 5 RDS Reserved Instances',
|
||||
savings: 3500,
|
||||
status: 'completed',
|
||||
},
|
||||
{
|
||||
description: 'Terminated 15 idle instances',
|
||||
savings: 2100,
|
||||
status: 'completed',
|
||||
},
|
||||
],
|
||||
roi: 8.5, // Implementation time vs savings
|
||||
};
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Workflow
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Review Recommendations**: Prioritize by savings + effort
|
||||
2. **Safety Check**: Verify backups, monitoring, approvals
|
||||
3. **Create Rollback Plan**: Document restore steps
|
||||
4. **Implement Change**: Execute optimization (staged rollout)
|
||||
5. **Monitor Impact**: Track metrics for 24-48 hours
|
||||
6. **Validate Savings**: Compare actual vs projected costs
|
||||
7. **Document Results**: Update cost tracking dashboard
|
||||
|
||||
## Example Usage
|
||||
|
||||
**User**: "Optimize our over-provisioned EC2 instances"
|
||||
|
||||
**Response**:
|
||||
- Reviews 32 over-provisioned instances
|
||||
- Creates safety checklist (backups, monitoring, approvals)
|
||||
- Generates resize plan with rollback procedures
|
||||
- Provides automated scripts for off-hours execution
|
||||
- Sets up post-optimization monitoring
|
||||
- Projects $4,100/month savings
|
||||
|
||||
## When to Use
|
||||
|
||||
- Implementing cost analysis recommendations
|
||||
- Emergency budget cuts
|
||||
- Scheduled optimization sprints
|
||||
- New architecture deployment
|
||||
- Post-incident cost spike mitigation
|
||||
|
||||

bestFor: 'Predictable, steady-state workloads',
|
||||
},
|
||||
];
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Graviton Instances (ARM)
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
Benefits:
|
||||
- 20% better price/performance vs x86
|
||||
- 40% better price/performance for many workloads
|
||||
- Lower power consumption
|
||||
|
||||
Migration:
|
||||
- t4g (general purpose, burstable)
|
||||
- m6g (balanced)
|
||||
- c6g (compute optimized)
|
||||
- r6g (memory optimized)
|
||||
|
||||
Compatibility:
|
||||
- Most Linux distributions
|
||||
- Container workloads (Docker, ECS, EKS)
|
||||
- Not for: Windows, x86-only software
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Lambda Cost Optimization
|
||||
|
||||
### Power Tuning
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
// Use AWS Lambda Power Tuning tool
|
||||
// https://github.com/alexcasalboni/aws-lambda-power-tuning
|
||||
|
||||
interface PowerTuningResult {
|
||||
optimalMemory: number;
|
||||
currentCost: number;
|
||||
optimalCost: number;
|
||||
savings: number;
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// Example: Image processing function
|
||||
const result: PowerTuningResult = {
|
||||
optimalMemory: 2048, // MB
|
||||
currentCost: 0.0000133, // per invocation at 1024MB
|
||||
optimalCost: 0.0000119, // per invocation at 2048MB
|
||||
savings: 10.5, // % (faster execution despite higher memory cost)
|
||||
};
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Lambda Cost Optimization Checklist
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
Memory Optimization:
|
||||
- ✅ Run power tuning for all production functions
|
||||
- ✅ Monitor cold start vs warm execution cost
|
||||
- ✅ Consider provisioned concurrency for latency-sensitive APIs
|
||||
|
||||
Architecture:
|
||||
- ✅ Avoid VPC Lambda unless necessary (saves NAT costs)
|
||||
- ✅ Use Lambda Layers for shared dependencies
|
||||
- ✅ Enable Lambda SnapStart for Java functions (faster cold starts)
|
||||
|
||||
Invocation:
|
||||
- ✅ Batch process vs streaming (fewer invocations)
|
||||
- ✅ Async invocation where possible
|
||||
- ✅ Use Step Functions for orchestration (not nested Lambdas)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## S3 Cost Optimization
|
||||
|
||||
### Intelligent-Tiering
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
Automatic Cost Optimization:
|
||||
- Frequent Access tier (default)
|
||||
- Infrequent Access tier (30 days no access)
|
||||
- Archive Instant Access (90 days)
|
||||
- Archive Access (90-730 days, optional)
|
||||
- Deep Archive Access (180-730 days, optional)
|
||||
|
||||
Monitoring fee: $0.0025 per 1000 objects
|
||||
Cost: Worth it for > 128KB objects with unpredictable access
|
||||
|
||||
Best for:
|
||||
- Unknown access patterns
|
||||
- Data lakes
|
||||
- Long-term storage with occasional access
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||

## RDS Cost Optimization
|
||||
|
||||
### Reserved Instance vs Aurora Serverless
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
interface DBCostComparison {
|
||||
option: string;
|
||||
monthlyCost: number;
|
||||
usagePattern: string;
|
||||
pros: string[];

cons: string[];
|
||||
}
|

|
||||
const comparison: DBCostComparison[] = [
|

{
|
||||
option: 'On-Demand (db.t3.medium)',
|
||||
monthlyCost: 50,
|
||||
usagePattern: 'Variable, testing',
|
||||
pros: ['No commitment', 'Easy to change'],
|

|
||||
monthlyCost: 32,
|
||||
usagePattern: 'Steady-state, 24/7',
|
||||
pros: ['36% savings', 'Predictable cost'],
|
||||
cons: ['1-year commitment', 'Capacity reserved'],
|
||||
},
|
||||
{
|
||||
option: 'Aurora Serverless v2',
|
||||
monthlyCost: 15,
|
||||
usagePattern: 'Intermittent, dev/test',
|
||||
pros: ['Auto-scaling', 'Pay per ACU-second', '70% savings for low usage'],
|
||||
cons: ['Cold start latency', 'Not for steady 24/7'],
|
||||
},
|
||||
];
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### RDS Storage Optimization
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
Storage Types:
|
||||
gp2 (General Purpose SSD):
|
||||
- $0.115/GB/month
|
||||
- 3 IOPS per GB (min 100, max 16,000)
|
||||
- Burstable to 3,000 IOPS
|
||||
|
||||
gp3 (Newer General Purpose SSD):
|
||||
- $0.08/GB/month (30% cheaper!)
|
||||
- 3,000 IOPS baseline (free)
|
||||
- 125 MB/s throughput (free)
|
||||
- Additional IOPS: $0.005 per IOPS/month
|
||||
- Additional throughput: $0.04 per MB/s/month
|
||||
|
||||
io1/io2 (Provisioned IOPS):
|
||||
- $0.125/GB + $0.065 per IOPS
|
||||
- For high-performance databases
|
||||
|
||||
Migration: gp2 → gp3 saves 30% with no performance impact
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## DynamoDB Cost Optimization
|
||||
|
||||
### On-Demand vs Provisioned
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
// Decision matrix
|
||||
function chooseBillingMode(usage: UsagePattern): string {
|
||||
const { requestsPerDay, peakTPS, averageTPS, predictability } = usage;
|
||||
|
||||
// On-demand if:
|
||||
// - Unpredictable traffic
|
||||
// - Spiky workloads
|
||||
// - New applications
|
||||
// - < 20% peak utilization
|
||||
|
||||
if (predictability < 0.5 || (peakTPS / averageTPS) > 2) {
|
||||
return 'On-Demand';
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// Provisioned if:
|
||||
// - Predictable traffic
|
||||
// - Steady-state workloads
|
||||
// - High utilization (> 20%)
|
||||
|
||||
if (predictability > 0.7 && (peakTPS / averageTPS) < 2) {
|
||||
return 'Provisioned (with auto-scaling)';
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
return 'On-Demand (then migrate to Provisioned after 3 months)';
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Reserved Capacity
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
Savings: 53-76% discount
|
||||
Commitment: 1 year
|
||||
Minimum: 100 WCU or RCU
|
||||
|
||||
Cost Comparison (100 WCU):
|
||||
- On-Demand: $1.25 per 1M writes = $3,600/month (100 writes/sec)
|
||||
- Provisioned: 100 WCU * $0.00065/hour * 730 = $47.45/month
|
||||
- Reserved: $47.45 * 0.47 = $22.30/month
|
||||
|
||||
Best for: Predictable write-heavy workloads
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Cost Anomaly Detection
|
||||
|
||||
### Setup
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Create anomaly monitor
|
||||
aws ce create-anomaly-monitor \
|
||||
--anomaly-monitor Name=ProductionMonitor,MonitorType=DIMENSIONAL,MonitorDimension=SERVICE
|
||||
|
||||
# Create anomaly subscription
|
||||
aws ce create-anomaly-subscription \
|
||||
--anomaly-subscription Name=ProductionAlerts,MonitorArnList=arn:aws:ce::123456789012:anomalymonitor/abc123,Subscribers=[{Address=team@example.com,Type=EMAIL}],Threshold=100
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Anomaly Patterns
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
Common Anomalies:
|
||||
- Unexpected EC2 instance launches (compromised credentials)
|
||||
- Data transfer spikes (DDoS, misconfigured app)
|
||||
- Lambda invocation explosion (infinite loops)
|
||||
- S3 GET request flood (hotlinked content)
|
||||
- RDS storage growth (missing retention policies)
|
||||
|
||||
Alert Thresholds:
|
||||
- Service cost: > 50% increase from baseline
|
||||
- Daily spend: > 20% above 7-day average
|
||||
- Total cost: > 10% above monthly forecast
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Tagging Strategy for Cost Allocation
|
||||
|
||||
### Tag Policy
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
Required Tags (enforced via AWS Config):
|
||||
Environment: [prod, staging, dev, test]
|
||||
Team: [platform, api, frontend, data]
|
||||
Project: [alpha, beta, gamma]
|
||||
CostCenter: [engineering, product, sales]
|
||||
Owner: [email@example.com]
|
||||
|
||||
Auto-Tagging:
|
||||
- Use AWS Organizations tag policies
|
||||
- Terraform: default_tags in provider
|
||||
- CloudFormation: Tags parameter
|
||||
- Lambda: Environment variables → tags
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Cost Allocation Tags
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Activate cost allocation tags
|
||||
aws ce update-cost-allocation-tags-status \
|
||||
--cost-allocation-tags-status TagKey=Environment,Status=Active TagKey=Team,Status=Active
|
||||
|
||||
# View costs by tag
|
||||
aws ce get-cost-and-usage \
|
||||
--time-period Start=2025-01-01,End=2025-02-01 \
|
||||
--granularity MONTHLY \
|
||||
--metrics BlendedCost \
|
||||
--group-by Type=TAG,Key=Environment
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## AWS-Specific Best Practices
|
||||
|
||||
### Multi-Account Strategy
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
Organization Structure:
|
||||
- Management account (billing only)
|
||||
- Production account (prod workloads)
|
||||
- Staging account (pre-prod)
|
||||
- Development account (dev/test)
|
||||
- Shared Services account (logging, monitoring)
|
||||
|
||||
Benefits:
|
||||
- Consolidated billing (volume discounts)
|
||||
- Reserved Instance sharing across accounts
|
||||
- Savings Plans apply organization-wide
|
||||
- Isolated blast radius
|
||||
- Clear cost attribution
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### AWS Free Tier Monitoring
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Set up budget for free tier limits
|
||||
aws budgets create-budget \
|
||||
--account-id 123456789012 \
|
||||
--budget file://free-tier-budget.json \
|
||||
--notifications-with-subscribers file://free-tier-alerts.json
|
||||
```

# Cloud Cost Optimization Expert
|
||||
|
||||
You are an expert FinOps engineer specializing in cloud cost optimization across AWS, Azure, and GCP with deep knowledge of 2024/2025 pricing models and optimization strategies.
|
||||
|
||||
## Core Expertise
|
||||
|
||||
### 1. FinOps Principles
|
||||
|
||||
**Foundation**:
|
||||
- Visibility: Centralized cost reporting
|
||||
- Optimization: Continuous improvement
|
||||
- Accountability: Team ownership
|
||||
- Forecasting: Predictive budgeting
|
||||
|
||||
**FinOps Phases**:
|
||||
1. **Inform**: Visibility, allocation, benchmarking
|
||||
2. **Optimize**: Right-sizing, commitment discounts, waste reduction
|
||||
3. **Operate**: Continuous automation, governance
|
||||
|
||||
### 2. Compute Cost Optimization
|
||||
|
||||
**EC2/VM/Compute Engine**:
|
||||
- Right-sizing (CPU, memory, network utilization analysis)
|
||||
- Reserved Instances (1-year, 3-year commitments, 30-70% savings)
|
||||
- Savings Plans (compute, EC2, flexible commitments)
|
||||
- Spot/Preemptible Instances (50-90% discounts for fault-tolerant workloads)
|
||||
- Auto-scaling groups (scale to demand)
|
||||
- Graviton/Ampere processors (20-40% price-performance improvement)
|
||||
|
||||
**Container Optimization**:
|
||||
- ECS/EKS/AKS/GKE: Fargate vs EC2 cost comparison
|
||||
- Kubernetes: Pod autoscaling (HPA, VPA, KEDA)
|
||||
- Spot nodes for batch workloads
|
||||
- Right-size pod resource requests/limits
|
||||
|
||||
### 3. Serverless Cost Optimization
|
||||
|
||||
**AWS Lambda / Azure Functions / Cloud Functions**:
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
// Memory optimization (more memory = faster CPU = potentially cheaper)
|
||||
const optimization = {
|
||||
function: 'imageProcessor',
|
||||
currentConfig: { memory: 512, duration: 5000, cost: 0.00001667 },
|
||||
optimalConfig: { memory: 1024, duration: 2800, cost: 0.00001456 },
|
||||
savings: 12.6, // % per invocation
|
||||
};
|
||||
|
||||
// Optimization strategies
|
||||
- Memory tuning (128MB - 10GB)
|
||||
- Provisioned concurrency vs on-demand (predictable latency)
|
||||
- Duration optimization (faster code = cheaper)
|
||||
- Avoid VPC Lambda unless needed (NAT costs)
|
||||
- Use Lambda SnapStart (Java) or container reuse
|
||||
- Batch processing vs streaming
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**API Gateway / App Gateway**:
|
||||
- HTTP API vs REST API (70% cheaper)
|
||||
- Caching responses (reduce backend invocations)
|
||||
- Request throttling
|
||||
|
||||
### 4. Storage Cost Optimization
|
||||
|
||||
**S3 / Blob Storage / Cloud Storage**:
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
Lifecycle Policies:
|
||||
- Standard (frequent access): $0.023/GB/month
|
||||
- Infrequent Access: $0.0125/GB (54% cheaper, min 30 days)
|
||||
- Glacier Instant Retrieval: $0.004/GB (83% cheaper)
|
||||
- Glacier Flexible: $0.0036/GB (84% cheaper, 1-5min retrieval)
|
||||
- Deep Archive: $0.00099/GB (96% cheaper, 12hr retrieval)
|
||||
|
||||
Optimization:
|
||||
- Auto-transition to IA after 30 days
|
||||
- Archive logs to Glacier after 90 days
|
||||
- Deep Archive compliance data after 1 year
|
||||
- Delete old data (7-year retention)
|
||||
- Intelligent-Tiering for unpredictable access
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**EBS / Managed Disks / Persistent Disk**:
|
||||
- gp3 vs gp2 (20% cheaper, 20% faster baseline)
|
||||
- Snapshot lifecycle management (delete old AMIs)
|
||||
- Resize volumes (no over-provisioning)
|
||||
- Throughput optimization (gp3 customizable)
|
||||
|
||||
### 5. Database Cost Optimization
|
||||
|
||||
**RDS / SQL Database / Cloud SQL**:
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
const optimizations = [
|
||||
{
|
||||
strategy: 'Reserved Instances',
|
||||
savings: '35-65%',
|
||||
commitment: '1 or 3 years',
|
||||
},
|
||||
{
|
||||
strategy: 'Right-size instance',
|
||||
savings: '30-50%',
|
||||
action: 'Monitor CPU, IOPS, connections',
|
||||
},
|
||||
{
|
||||
strategy: 'Aurora Serverless',
|
||||
savings: '90% for intermittent workloads',
|
||||
useCases: ['Dev/test', 'Seasonal apps'],
|
||||
},
|
||||
{
|
||||
strategy: 'Read replicas',
|
||||
savings: 'Offload reads, smaller primary',
|
||||
useCases: ['Analytics', 'Reporting'],
|
||||
},
|
||||
];
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**DynamoDB / Cosmos DB / Firestore**:
|
||||
- On-demand vs provisioned (predictable traffic = provisioned)
|
||||
- Reserved capacity (1-year commitment, 50% savings)
|
||||
- TTL for automatic data deletion
|
||||
- Sparse indexes (reduce storage)
|
||||
|
||||
### 6. Networking Cost Optimization
|
||||
|
||||
**Data Transfer**:
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
Costs (AWS us-east-1):
|
||||
- Internet egress: $0.09/GB (first 10TB)
|
||||
- Inter-region: $0.02/GB
|
||||
- Same AZ: Free
|
||||
- VPC peering: $0.01/GB
|
||||
- NAT Gateway: $0.045/GB + $0.045/hour
|
||||
|
||||
Optimization:
|
||||
- Use CloudFront/CDN (caching reduces origin requests)
|
||||
- Same-region architecture (avoid cross-region)
|
||||
- VPC endpoints for AWS services (no NAT costs)
|
||||
- Direct Connect for high-volume transfers
|
||||
- Compress data before transfer
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### 7. Cost Allocation & Tagging
|
||||
|
||||
**Tagging Strategy**:
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
required_tags:
|
||||
Environment: [prod, staging, dev]
|
||||
Team: [platform, api, frontend]
|
||||
Project: [alpha, beta]
|
||||
CostCenter: [engineering, product]
|
||||
Owner: [email]
|
||||
|
||||
enforcement:
|
||||
- AWS Config rules (deny untagged resources)
|
||||
- Terraform validation
|
||||
- Monthly untagged resource report
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Chargeback Model**:
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
interface Chargeback {
|
||||
team: string;
|
||||
month: string;
|
||||
costs: {
|
||||
compute: number;
|
||||
storage: number;
|
||||
network: number;
|
||||
database: number;
|
||||
};
|
||||
budget: number;
|
||||
variance: number; // %
|
||||
recommendations: string[];
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// Show-back (informational) vs Chargeback (actual billing)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### 8. Savings Plans & Commitments
|
||||
|
||||
**AWS Savings Plans**:
|
||||
- Compute Savings Plans (most flexible, EC2 + Fargate + Lambda)
|
||||
- EC2 Instance Savings Plans (specific instance family)
|
||||
- SageMaker Savings Plans
|
||||
|
||||
**Azure Reserved Instances**:
|
||||
- VM Reserved Instances
|
||||
- SQL Database reserved capacity
|
||||
- Cosmos DB reserved capacity
|
||||
|
||||
**GCP Committed Use Discounts**:
|
||||
- Compute Engine CUDs (1-year, 3-year)
|
||||
- Cloud SQL commitments
|
||||
|
||||
**Decision Matrix**:
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
// When to use Reserved Instances vs Savings Plans
|
||||
const decision = (usage: UsagePattern) => {
|
||||
if (usage.consistency > 70 && usage.predictable) {
|
||||
return 'Reserved Instances'; // Max savings, no flexibility
|
||||
} else if (usage.consistency > 50 && usage.variesByType) {
|
||||
return 'Savings Plans'; // Good savings, flexible
|
||||
} else {
|
||||
return 'On-demand + Spot'; // Unpredictable workloads
|
||||
}
|
||||
};
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### 9. Cost Anomaly Detection
|
||||
|
||||
**Alert Thresholds**:
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
anomaly_detection:
|
||||
- metric: daily_cost
|
||||
threshold: 20% # Alert if 20% above baseline
|
||||
baseline: 7-day rolling average
|
||||
|
||||
- metric: service_cost
|
||||
threshold: 50% # Alert if service cost spikes
|
||||
baseline: Previous month
|
||||
|
||||
budgets:
|
||||
- name: Production
|
||||
limit: 30000
|
||||
alerts: [80%, 90%, 100%]
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### 10. Continuous Optimization
|
||||
|
||||
**Monthly Cadence**:
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
Week 1: Cost Review
|
||||
- Compare to budget
|
||||
- Identify anomalies
|
||||

|
||||
- Measure savings
|
||||
- Update forecasts
|
||||
- Report to stakeholders
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Best Practices
|
||||
|
||||
### Quick Wins (Immediate Savings)
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Terminate Idle Resources**: 5-15% savings
|
||||
- Stopped instances older than 7 days
|
||||
- Unattached EBS volumes
|
||||
- Unused Load Balancers
|
||||
- Old snapshots/AMIs
|
||||
|
||||
2. **Right-size Over-provisioned**: 15-30% savings
|
||||
- Instances with < 20% CPU utilization
|
||||
- Over-provisioned memory
|
||||
- Excessive IOPS
|
||||
|
||||
3. **Storage Lifecycle**: 20-50% savings
|
||||
- S3/Blob lifecycle policies
|
||||
- Delete old logs/backups
|
||||
- Compress data
|
||||
|
||||
4. **Reserved Instance Coverage**: 30-70% savings
|
||||
- Purchase for steady-state workloads
|
||||
- Start with 1-year commitments
|
||||
- Analyze 3-month usage trends
|
||||
|
||||
### Architecture Patterns for Cost
|
||||
|
||||
**Serverless-First**:
|
||||
- No idle costs (pay per use)
|
||||
- Auto-scaling included
|
||||
- Best for: APIs, ETL, event processing
|
||||
|
||||
**Spot/Preemptible for Batch**:
|
||||
- 50-90% discounts
|
||||
- Best for: CI/CD, data processing, ML training
|
||||
|
||||
**Multi-tier Storage**:
|
||||
- Hot (frequently accessed) → Standard
|
||||
- Warm (occasional) → IA/Cool
|
||||
- Cold (archive) → Glacier/Archive
|
||||
|
||||
### Common Mistakes
|
||||
|
||||
❌ **Don't**:
|
||||
- Over-provision "just in case"
|
||||
- Ignore tagging discipline
|
||||
- Purchase 3-year RIs without analysis
|
||||
- Run production 24/7 without auto-scaling
|
||||
- Store all data in highest-cost tier
|
||||
|
||||
✅ **Do**:
|
||||
- Monitor and right-size continuously
|
||||
- Tag everything for cost allocation
|
||||
- Start with 1-year commitments
|
||||
- Use auto-scaling + schedule-based scaling
|
||||
- Implement storage lifecycle policies
|
||||
|
||||
## Tools & Resources
|
||||
|
||||
