Managing AWS cloud costs effectively requires a structured approach that includes budgeting, monitoring, and automation. Over the years, Iโ€™ve developed a ๐—™๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ข๐—ฝ๐˜€ ๐—ณ๐—ผ๐˜‚๐—ป๐—ฑ๐—ฎ๐˜๐—ถ๐—ผ๐—ป using ๐˜›๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ๐˜ณ๐˜ข๐˜ง๐˜ฐ๐˜ณ๐˜ฎ, which I customize based on the technical solutions I provide for clients.

I recently started a video series where I break down how I implement AWS FinOps in my projects. The first video is live, and Iโ€™ll post the rest weekly.

Whatโ€™s Covered in the Series:

โ€ข Part 1: Setting up Terraform for AWS FinOps
โ€ข Part 2: Configuring a backend with S3 and DynamoDB for state management
โ€ข Part 3: Deploying AWS Budgets, CloudWatch Alarms, and Cost Anomaly Detection
โ€ข Part 4: Automating cost optimization with Lambda

AWS costs can quickly escalate if not properly managed. This framework helps me:
โ€ข Implement budget tracking and cost monitoring.
โ€ข Automate cost anomaly detection.
โ€ข Optimize resources using Lambda functions.
โ€ข Ensure infrastructure is scalable, resilient, and cost-efficient.

The first video is available now, and Iโ€™ll post new videos weekly.
