AWS FinOps · Cost Optimization

Turn AWS cost into an engineering discipline.

Ghaim helps engineering and finance understand where AWS spend comes from, which costs are structural, where waste exists and which architecture or commitment decisions can lower cost without creating reliability risk.

How we approach it

Architecture, execution and operations in one plan.

We keep the work tied to business outcomes: security, availability, delivery speed, cost control and a platform that can keep evolving after launch.

01

Make spend visible

We establish tagging, allocation, account structure and reporting so teams can understand cost by workload, environment, customer, product or owner.

Optimization starts with reliable attribution.

02

Rightsize compute and databases

We review utilization, scaling behavior, instance families, database sizing, storage and idle capacity.

Changes are evaluated against performance and availability requirements rather than made purely to reduce the bill.

03

Use commitments intelligently

Savings Plans and Reserved Instances can reduce eligible spend when usage is stable enough to justify commitment.

We separate baseline usage from variable growth so commitment decisions do not become a constraint.

04

Optimize architecture

Serverless, autoscaling, managed databases, storage tiers, Graviton and container density can change the underlying unit economics of a workload.

The biggest savings often come from architecture rather than a one-time cleanup.

05

Create a monthly FinOps loop

Teams need recurring cost reviews, anomaly detection, ownership and prioritized actions.

This keeps cloud spend aligned with growth instead of allowing waste to rebuild after an optimization project.

FAQ

Questions customers ask before starting.

How much can AWS cost optimization save?

Savings depend entirely on the current architecture and usage. We avoid promising a generic percentage before examining the environment.

Do you only rightsize EC2?

No. We review databases, storage, Kubernetes or containers, data transfer, commitments, idle resources, architecture and operational practices.

Can you optimize costs without reducing reliability?

Yes. Reliability requirements are treated as constraints. Cost optimization should remove waste, not remove required resilience.

Do you help with Savings Plans?

Yes. We analyze stable usage and commitment coverage before recommending Savings Plans or Reserved Instances.

Is FinOps part of Cloud Operations?

Yes. AWS Cloud Operations includes Cloud Financial Management, and Ghaim treats FinOps as an ongoing operating capability.
