Cloud Checkr: Tracking, Allocating and Optimizing AWS Spend

AWS provides cost management features like resource tagging, detailed billing, and RI and Spot instances. However, capitalizing on these features requires implementing the right strategies and ongoing monitoring. CloudCheckr, an AWS Advanced Technology partner invites you to join this presentation to learn strategies that can enable finer control and cost management structures to improve your price-to-performance metrics. The presentation will help you achieve quantifiable and sustainable cost management results with particular emphasis on:

• Implementing tags to track and allocate spend by business unit, department, or team

• Identifying orphaned, idle, and underutilized resources

• Evaluating RI purchases and other opportunities for cost savings

• Creating budget alerts to ensure budget and cost discipline
