For years, cloud computing was just AWS to me. I mean, it was the first major player, right? And because it\u2019s the oldest, so many businesses have their digital stuff parked there.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

As the top cloud provider with like <\/span>30% of the market<\/span><\/b>, AWS is the default choice for a reason. “Pay-as-you-go,” insane scalability, reliability, and over 200 fully featured services… I could go on forever.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

But after years advising with a leading <\/span>cloud consulting company<\/strong><\/a>, I’ve observed the great cloud irony: most businesses <\/span>migrate to AWS<\/a><\/strong> and then forget to be efficient. They get stuck with bloated services, shocking bills, and barely scratch the surface of what they’re paying for.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

That\u2019s actually why I\u2019m writing this third blog in my cloud cost optimization series. I\u2019ve already talked about <\/span>GCP cost optimization<\/a><\/strong> and <\/span>Azure cost optimization<\/a><\/strong> before. And now, it\u2019s AWS\u2019s turn.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
