FinOps & Cost Optimization

FinOps is the discipline of continuously matching cloud spend to actual usage — rightsizing instances, committing to Savings Plans where usage is predictable, using Spot for non-production workloads, and reviewing cost monthly rather than after the bill arrives. For Bangladeshi teams, the biggest single lever is often billing itself: reseller pricing plus BDT invoicing removes the FX and SWIFT overhead that inflates an already-unoptimized bill before any technical optimization even starts. TiCON's engagements typically cut AWS costs 15–35% through this combination — cost governance first, reseller pricing on top, CloudFront bandwidth savings on top of that for anything serving media or static assets. The posts below cover the individual tactics one at a time — rightsizing, commitments, storage tiering, and a dedicated SME playbook for teams without a full platform team to run this continuously.
