Cloud Cost Optimization for AWS, Google Cloud, and Azure

Cut waste in cloud bills while keeping performance and release habits intact. I audit usage, prioritize reversible changes, and leave you with budgets and alerts, not a one-time slide deck.

Lower the bill without guessing percentages.

Cloud waste usually looks boring: oversized instances, always-on staging, unattached disks, on-demand pricing for steady workloads, and egress nobody mapped. I treat cost work like engineering: evidence first, reversible changes next, monitoring last so the savings stick.

Use this page when the goal is lower cloud spend and clearer FinOps habits. Use Cloud Infrastructure Development when you need to build and operate the platform itself. I do not invent client logos or savings figures on this site.

What this page covers

  • Billing & usage audit
  • Rightsizing compute & data
  • Commitments & discount plans
  • Idle cleanup
  • Storage, CDN & egress

What I Can Help With

End-to-end full-stack execution for web applications, APIs, cloud infrastructure, and product launches.

Billing & usage audit

Read-only review of recent spend across accounts, projects, or subscriptions to map where money actually goes.

Rightsizing compute & data

Match instances, databases, and containers to measured usage instead of oversized defaults.

Commitments & discount plans

Apply Reserved Instances, Savings Plans, or committed use only where workloads are steady enough to justify them.

Idle cleanup

Find unused disks, snapshots, load balancers, IPs, and forgotten environments that keep charging after the project moved on.

Storage, CDN & egress

Lifecycle cold data, tighten transfer paths, and reduce surprise egress without breaking product latency goals.

Serverless & containers

Tune Lambda/Cloud Run/Fargate/Kubernetes sizing, concurrency, and scheduling so idle capacity is not the default bill.

Database cost control

Right-size replicas, storage classes, and query hotspots that inflate I/O and instance tiers.

FinOps monitoring

Budgets, anomaly alerts, tagging, and a review cadence so new waste is caught on the next invoice, not a year later.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about full-stack development, APIs, cloud deployment, and project delivery.

Cloud infrastructure is about building and operating deploys, CI/CD, containers, and secure runtimes. Cloud cost work is about reducing bill waste and installing FinOps habits on systems you already run.

No. Honest savings depend on your usage shape. After a billing and usage review I share prioritized changes with effort and risk, not a marketing percentage.

AWS, Google Cloud, and Azure. The same patterns apply: measure, rightsize, commit carefully, clean idle resources, and monitor.

When it is justified. Migrations are scoped separately from quick wins because moving providers is architecture work, not a billing toggle.

Not on this site. Cloud cost work here starts with a read-only billing and usage review on your accounts, then a prioritized list of reversible changes, not a public calculator that invents savings.
