what resources. Below you will find the aggregated overview of resources we
are using in AWS.
If you will not mind, I plan to send this overview every month. My intention
is to be able to see the overview of long-term provisioned resources across
regions. This is just snapshot of one moment. This report does not catch how
long the resource has been provisioned.
This report does not include:
* snapshots - this is something I want to focus in next step in near future
* CloudFront - this is actualy biggest item on our invoice. But there is
nothing we can do about it. There is no cheaper option and no way to
optimize it further. I have no intention to report our usage of CloudFront.
* price of instances - this report does not differ if the instance is spot,
reserved one, or on demand. I am not sure if I want to report it as my main
goal is to catch forgotten resources rather than aiming for lowering the
total cost.
If you have ideas how to improve this report, let me know.
Might it be possible to put all the resources under the same tag, ie,
FedoraGroup: infra
volumes:
...
instances:
...
That way it's easier if you are looking at only one group.
Or, perhaps a more csv type thing?
Group,region,kind,size/type/count
infra,us-west-2,volume,gp3,500GB
infra,us-west-2,instance,t2.large,3
But in any case, thanks, this will be helpful over time.
I think monthly is about right.
