AWS Cost Optimization and Reliability Platform

A production-ready AWS infrastructure project that balances cost optimization with high reliability using automated controls, monitoring, and safeguards.

Architecture Overview

This solution implements a comprehensive cost optimization strategy while maintaining system reliability through:

  • Cost Controls: AWS Budgets with automated responses, scheduled Lambda functions for resource optimization
  • Reliability Safeguards: CloudWatch alarms for critical metrics, auto-scaling policies, multi-AZ deployments
  • Automation: Lambda functions triggered by budget alerts and schedules to optimize costs safely
  • Notifications: SNS topics for budget alerts, CloudWatch alarms, and operational events
  • Workload: Sample ECS-based application with auto-scaling and cost-optimized configurations

Key Components

  1. Budget Management: Multi-tier budgets (monthly, service-specific) with threshold alerts
  2. Cost Automation: Safe shutdown of non-production resources, ECS task scaling, S3 lifecycle policies
  3. Reliability Monitoring: CPU, memory, latency, error rate, and storage alarms
  4. Tagging Strategy: Consistent tagging for cost allocation and automation targeting
  5. Security: IAM least privilege, encryption at rest/transit, audit logging
