Daily Budgets

Each day, AWS Budgets will evaluate yesterday’s cost or usage (the last full day of cloud spend and usage)

減成本的方法

 

  • Savings Plans
  • EC2 RIs(Reserved Instances)

 


Savings Plans

 

Compute Savings Plans

* regardless of region, instance family, size, OS, tenancy
* Apply to EC2 Fargate or Lambda usage

EC2 Instance Savings Plans

 * A given EC2 instance family(t3, m6?) in a chosen region
    (regardless of size, OS or tenancy)

價錢比較 t3 # All Upfront

33%       <- Compute Savings Plans
41%       <- EC2 Instance Savings Plans

 


EC2 RIs(Reserved Instances)

 

EC2 RIs provide a discounted hourly rate

AWS Billing automatically applies your RI’s discounted rate when attributes of EC2 instance usage match attributes of an active RI.

Can apply to usage across all Availability Zones in an AWS region

Standard

 * Change Availability Zone, instance size (for Linux OS), networking type
    (Using ModifyReservedInstances API and console)

Convertible

 * Change instance families, operating system, tenancy, and payment option

RI Marketplace

Reserved Instance Marketplace allows other AWS customers to list their Standard RIs for sale.

Third-party Standard RIs are no different from the Standard Reserved Instances purchased directly from AWS

except they are often listed at lower prices and shorter terms.
