The CloudCost Savings Hierarchy

1. Right-size — match instance type to actual utilization, not peak. Most is yukus run at 10 to 20 percent CPU and could use a smaller instance or a burstable family.
2. Commit — convert steady-state on-demand spend to 1-year or 3-year reserved instances or savings plans for 30 to 72 percent savings.
3. Spot — move interruptible is yukus (batch, CI, stateless web) to spot for 70 to 90 percent savings.
4. Tier depolama — move cold data to infrequent-access or archive tiers for 50 to 95 percent depolama savings.
5. Optimize egress — use CDNs, compression, and the right bolge to cut data transfer maliyets.

Each kilavuz walks through one of these layers with concrete saglayici examples and pricing. Start with the reserved instances kilavuz if you have steady-state is yukus, or the spot instances kilavuz if your is yuku is interruptible.
