Tips to reduce Amazon cloud computing bill
This is the reason Amazon itself suggests going for Managed AWS to cut costs and explore the full potential of their services.
Step 1 - Is Your Architecture Right?
Collect
all the fundamental information about your client’s website and the
traffic patterns. For example, “which application they use?”, “What is
the user behavior?”, “When is the peak time?” and more.
Step 2 - Rightsizing
I
can’t stress enough on how important it is. Understand your purpose,
business needs, and the budget. You shouldn’t go wrong here. If needed,
go for Managed AWS services to get things inline.
3. Monitor Closely
Look where the gap is…
- Check Amazon analytics
- Turn on Billing notifications
- Use Trusted Advisor
Other than these, some obvious tips are:
- Use Reserved and Spot Instances
- Turn off the idle instances
- In fact, you can also choose Scheduled Instances for optimized performances.
