AWS has the ability to change the model of running technology and platform services dramatically. However, companies have to use it wisely.

This article is the first of my series on AWS cost optimization. In this series, I’ll introduce the challenges with AWS costs. I’ll also offer actionable recommendations on how to solve them and perform efficient AWS cost optimization.

Most businesses spend much more on processing and storage than they need. This is often the case with operating expenses for excess capacity to meet peak demand in their on-site data centers.
