How to design your AWS cost allocation strategy


On-Demand

CFM Peer Connect


  

When costs are seen as a public good or organizational overhead (aka “IT tax”), end users can overlook the importance of building cost-efficient applications or making rational, informed purchase decisions related to their applications. The best way to raise cost awareness is to make users accountable of their own cost and usage – a process that starts by making costs visible internally. We will discuss different approaches to cost allocation (sometimes referred to as showback and chargeback) and how you can choose the right strategy for your organization. We will share which services and tools you can use to implement a cost allocation process.

 

Learning Topics

 
  • Understand the concepts of cost allocation for accountability
  • Learn why cost allocation is important to your organization
  • Learn which tools you can use to help implement a cost allocation process

Who Should Attend 

 
CIOs, CTOs, VP Operations, IT Leaders, IT Decision Makers, IT Finance leaders, Business Unit Leaders, Cloud Architects, Solution Architects
