AWS CFM Talks
Use cost allocation strategies to understand your AWS bill


April 11th | 10:00 AM PT


  
About this event
  
 As we talk to customers, one of the most common challenges we hear about is creating a culture of “cost awareness”. How do you get developers or business owners (or really anyone) to treat cost as a factor in designing and implementing applications and solutions? A good way to start creating a cost aware culture is ensuring that the teams know how their decisions impact cost. Cost allocation is foundational to making informed decisions to best support business outcomes. To do this, you need to define a cost allocation strategy that speaks to your specific financial management process, and ties cost and resources usage data to the business needs and outcomes.
