Summary
With all the ideas described in this chapter, we close our exploration of compute optimization. We discussed the initiatives, concepts, and tools that every FinOps practitioner should know about, as well as deciding whether to apply them or not depending on the use case and the context.
We also explained some key topics, such as data transfer costs and resource management, which, even though they don’t result in direct cost optimization, can be a great help in your cost optimization journey.
In the next chapter, we will delve into database optimization, keeping the same mindset we’ve utilized during the chapters dedicated to the compute domain.
