AWS STARTUP DAY 2018 I Keeping Your Infrastructure Costs Low
0 likes75 views
The document outlines strategies for optimizing infrastructure costs using AWS cloud services, highlighting how businesses can lower expenses by leveraging economies of scale, efficient resource usage, and AWS-specific features. Key recommendations include utilizing auto-scaling, reserved and spot instances, and strategic storage options to achieve significant cost savings. Additionally, it encourages offloading compute needs to AWS services rather than maintaining on-premises infrastructure.

- 7. 1. CHOSE THE RIGHT INSTANCE TYPES Choose an instance that best meets your basic requirements Start with memory & then choose closest virtual cores Assess peak IOPS storage requirements Run multiple instances in multiple Availability Zones Change instance size up or down based upon monitoring Use CloudWatch & Trusted Advisor to assess START DEPLOY & SCALETUNE
- 8. 2. USE AUTO SCALING LAUNCH CONFIGURATION Describes what Auto Scaling will create when adding Instances Only one active launch configuration at a time as-create-launch-config --image-id ami-54cf5c3d --instance-type m1.small --key mykey --group webservers --launch-config 101-launch-config AUTO SCALING GROUP Auto Scaling managed grouping of EC2 instances Automatically scale the number of instances by policy as-create-auto-scaling-group 101-as-group --availability-zones us-east-1a us-east-1b --launch-configuration 101-launch-config --load-balancers myELB --max-size 5 --min-size 2 AUTO SCALING POLICY Parameters for performing an Auto Scaling action Scale Up/Down and by how much as-put-scaling-policy 101ScaleUpPolicy --auto-scaling-group 101-as-group --adjustment=1 --type ChangeInCapacity --cooldown 300
