Dial down your cloud costs

The economic climate has enforced a new rigor with which companies are evaluating, pricing and procuring cloud investments.

Analysts from Enterprise Strategy Group (ESG), conducted a 2023 predictions study for IT spend trends for the coming year, and cloud cost optimisation tools were highlighted as an investment that could soon become mandatory for any organisation using cloud services.

It is crucial for organisations investing in cloud services, to first take time to better understand how and why they should implement cloud cost management and optimisation (CCMO). IT leaders are being asked to ‘do more with less’, invest in solutions that will support future scale and innovation, while enacting budget saving measures where necessary. Those organisations who will see the greatest returns in the coming months and years, are those who can operationalise CCMO into their processes.

Key learnings from this AWS webinar:

• AWS cloud financial management (CFM) benchmarks and best practices to better understand your cloud usage and costs
• Mechanisms for how to save in the cloud: cost optimisation, reserved instances (RI), workload observability and rightsizing
• AWS and partners specialising in CCMO are teaming up to help companies dial down their cloud costs

The original webinar took place on 26th July, 2023.
