Optimize cloud costs through resource rightsizing, tagging strategies, reserved instances, and spending analysis. Use when reducing cloud expenses, analyzing infrastructure costs, or implementing cost governance policies.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Cloud Cost Optimization

Strategies and patterns for optimizing cloud costs across AWS, Azure, and GCP.

## Purpose

Implement systematic cost optimization strategies to reduce cloud spending while maintaining performance and reliability.

## When to Use

- Reduce cloud spending
- Right-size resources
- Implement cost governance
- Optimize multi-cloud costs
- Meet budget constraints

## Cost Optimization Framework

### 1. Visibility

- Implement cost allocation tags
- Use cloud cost management tools
- Set up budget alerts
- Create cost dashboards

### 2. Right-Sizing

- Analyze resource utilization
- Downsize over-provisioned resources
- Use auto-scaling
- Remove idle resources

### 3. Pricing Models

- Use reserved capacity
- Leverage spot/preemptible instances
- Implement savings plans
- Use committed use discounts

### 4. Architecture Optimization

- Use managed services
- Implement caching
- Optimize data transfer
- Use lifecycle policies

## AWS Cost Optimization

### Reserved Instances

```
Savings: 30-72% vs On-Demand
Term: 1 or 3 years
Payment: All/Partial/No upfront
Flexibility: Standard or Convertible
```

### Savings Plans

```
Compute Savings Plans: 66% savings

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add dicklesworthstone/pi_agent_rust/cost-optimization@sha256:16af11bdea300e91

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260205.788be98, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
