Part 1: Managing Your AWS Inventory

The objective of Part 1 is to help you understand and track your inventory. This is the first step toward eliminating waste. This part will help you know what you own and what your baseline spending is. If you do not have this information, you won’t know what to optimize! This is like knowing your inventory in a warehouse: if you don’t know what you have, you are poorly established to grow your business.

This part of the book comprises the following chapters:

• Chapter 2, Establishing the Right Account Structure
• Chapter 3, Managing Inventory
• Chapter 4, Planning and Metrics Tracking
• Chapter 5, Governing Cost and Usage
