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
```

### 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
