- ## Cost Optimization
139
-
140
- ### Right-Sizing Process
141
- ```
142
- 1. Analyze current utilization
143
- - CPU, memory, network metrics
144
- - Peak vs average usage
145
-
146
- 2. Identify waste
147
- - Underutilized instances
148
- - Orphaned resources
149
- - Oversized databases
150
-
151
- 3. Implement changes
152
- - Downsize instances
153
- - Remove unused resources
154
- - Consolidate workloads
155
-
156
- 4. Automate
157
- - Auto-scaling policies
158
- - Scheduled start/stop
159
- - Spot instance usage
160
- ```
161
-
162
- ### Savings Strategies
163
- | Strategy | Savings | Commitment |
164
- |----------|---------|------------|
165
- | Spot/Preemptible | Up to 90% | None, can be interrupted |
166
- | Reserved/Committed | 30-60% | 1-3 years |
167
- | Savings Plans | 20-30% | $ commitment |
168
- | Right-sizing | 20-50% | None |
169
-
170
- ### Tagging Strategy
171
- ```yaml
172
- # Required tags for all resources
173
- tags:
174
- environment: production
175
- team: payments
176
- cost-center: CC-12345
177
- application: checkout
178
- owner: team@company.com
179
- created-by: terraform
180
- ```
181
-
182
- ## Security Best Practices
183
-
184
- ### IAM Principles
185
- ```
186
- 1. Least Privilege
187
- - Only necessary permissions
188
- - Regular access reviews
189
-
190
- 2. Role-based Access
191
- - Use roles, not users
192
- - Assume roles for cross-account
193
-
194
- 3. MFA Everywhere
195
- - All human access
196
- - Sensitive operations
197
-
198
- 4. No Long-lived Credentials
199
- - Use IAM roles
200
- - Rotate access keys
201
- ```
202
-
203
- ### Network Security

322
-
323
- ### Cost Optimization Checklist
324
- - [ ] Right-sized instances (not over-provisioned)
325
- - [ ] Reserved instances for baseline load (1-3 year)
326
- - [ ] Spot instances for batch/worker jobs
327
- - [ ] Storage lifecycle policies (archive old data)
328
- - [ ] CDN for static assets
329
- - [ ] Database read replicas vs scaling up
330
- - [ ] Serverless for variable workloads
331
-
332
- ## Anti-Patterns to Avoid
333
-
334
- | Anti-Pattern | Better Approach |
335
- |--------------|-----------------|
336
- | Lift and shift only | Modernize where beneficial |
337
- | Single AZ deployment | Multi-AZ for production |
338
- | Over-provisioning | Right-size and auto-scale |
339
- | No tagging strategy | Consistent tagging from start |
340
- | Ignoring data gravity | Consider data location costs |
341
-
342
- ## Constraints
343
-
344
- - Design for failure (assume things break)
345
- - Implement defense in depth
346
- - Always enable encryption at rest and in transit
347
- - Use managed services where appropriate
348
- - Document architecture decisions
349

138
+ ## Cost Optimization
139
+
140
+ ### Right-Sizing Process
141
+ ```
142
+ 1. Analyze current utilization
143
+ - CPU, memory, network metrics
144
+ - Peak vs average usage
145
+
146
+ 2. Identify waste
147
+ - Underutilized instances
148
+ - Orphaned resources
149
+ - Oversized databases
150
+
151
+ 3. Implement changes
152
+ - Downsize instances
153
+ - Remove unused resources
154
+ - Consolidate workloads
155
+
156
+ 4. Automate
157
+ - Auto-scaling policies
158
+ - Scheduled start/stop
159
+ - Spot instance usage
160
+ ```
161
+
162
+ ### Savings Strategies
163
+ | Strategy | Savings | Commitment |
164
+ |----------|---------|------------|
165
+ | Spot/Preemptible | Up to 90% | None, can be interrupted |
166
+ | Reserved/Committed | 30-60% | 1-3 years |
167
+ | Savings Plans | 20-30% | $ commitment |
168
+ | Right-sizing | 20-50% | None |
169
+
170
+ ### Tagging Strategy
171
+ ```yaml
172
+ # Required tags for all resources
173
+ tags:
174
+ environment: production
175
+ team: payments
176
+ cost-center: CC-12345
177
+ application: checkout
178
+ owner: team@company.com
179
+ created-by: terraform
180
+ ```
181
+
182
+ ## Security Best Practices
183
+
184
+ ### IAM Principles
185
+ ```
186
+ 1. Least Privilege
187
+ - Only necessary permissions
188
+ - Regular access reviews
189
+
190
+ 2. Role-based Access
191
+ - Use roles, not users
192
+ - Assume roles for cross-account
193
+
194
+ 3. MFA Everywhere
195
+ - All human access
196
+ - Sensitive operations
197
+
198
+ 4. No Long-lived Credentials
199
+ - Use IAM roles
200
+ - Rotate access keys
201
+ ```
202
+
203
+ ### Network Security

232
+ |----------|-----|-----|------|
233
+ | Backup & Restore | Hours | Hours | $ |
234

238
+ ### Multi-Region Setup
239
+ ```hcl
240
+ # Terraform for multi-region
241
+ module "primary" {
242
+ source = "./modules/app"
243
+ providers = { aws = aws.us-east-1 }
244
+ is_primary = true
245
+ }
246
+
247
+ module "secondary" {
248
+ source = "./modules/app"
249
+ providers = { aws = aws.eu-west-1 }
250
+ is_primary = false
251
+ primary_db_arn = module.primary.db_arn
252
+ }
253
+
254
+ # Global accelerator for traffic routing
255
+ resource "aws_globalaccelerator_accelerator" "main" {
256
+ name = "app-accelerator"
257
+ }
258
+ ```

321
+ | 100,000 | $XXX | Requires architecture review |
322
+
323
+ ### Cost Optimization Checklist
324
+ - [ ] Right-sized instances (not over-provisioned)
325
+ - [ ] Reserved instances for baseline load (1-3 year)
326
+ - [ ] Spot instances for batch/worker jobs
327
+ - [ ] Storage lifecycle policies (archive old data)
328
+ - [ ] CDN for static assets
329
+ - [ ] Database read replicas vs scaling up
330
+ - [ ] Serverless for variable workloads
331
+
332
+ ## Anti-Patterns to Avoid
333
+
334
+ | Anti-Pattern | Better Approach |
335
+ |--------------|-----------------|
336
+ | Lift and shift only | Modernize where beneficial |
337
+ | Single AZ deployment | Multi-AZ for production |
338
+ | Over-provisioning | Right-size and auto-scale |
339
+ | No tagging strategy | Consistent tagging from start |
340
+ | Ignoring data gravity | Consider data location costs |
341
+
342
+ ## Constraints
343
+
344
+ - Design for failure (assume things break)
345
+ - Implement defense in depth
346
+ - Always enable encryption at rest and in transit
347
+ - Use managed services where appropriate
348
+ - Document architecture decisions
