1. Investigation and Planning •  Proof Of Concept (POC) projects

•  Not too simple •  Might look good, but not a POC •  RightScale Webinars

•  Architect the application 1.  Think about services (compute, storage, data transfers etc)

2.  Think about workloads 3.  Think about cloud providers

Cloud Cost Tips •  Things to note at this stage:

•  Server costs will be 70-95% of your costs, however, do not look past other costs

•  Storage, Database, Data Transfers, Support, Licenses, Others

•  You pay for the amount of storage you provision, not the amount you use •  Specific resources for specific use cases

•  If you terminate a server with a volume attached, you will still be charged for the volume More: blog.PlanForCloud.com

Monitoring Costs •  Cloud Cost Sprawl

•  Low cost resources and quick access can be a blessing and a curse •  This is not a one person job but a team effort

•  How RightScale does it •  At-a-glance

•  Deployments & account level costs

•  Detailed •  Cross-account granular costs

•  Solution Demo •  Generating cost reporting data •  Consuming it through common tools

3. Optimization •  Resource Optimization

•  Using existing resources more optimally •  Looking at monitoring metrics (CPU, Memory etc) •  Setting procedures in place •  Using the correct resources for the job (e.g. EBS vs S3 vs Glacier)

•  Cost Optimization •  Require business decisions to be made •  Usually cloud provider specific (purchase options)

Cost Optimization •  Purchase options

•  AWS & Azure •  How do you want to pay (upfront vs. monthly) •  Commitment period •  Drive behavior •  Note: Next year, the same will maintain costs •  PlanForCloud can help you with Reserved Instance decisions

•  Instance running period •  Google & Azure = minutely •  AWS = hourly
