Looking to start a FinOps practice but not sure where to begin? Not sure where to begin or how to save? Peter's book covers it all. He's read all of AWS service documentation to curate an easy to follow book with practical steps to start saving. Must ready, well worth the time and money invested for a huge gain.

As a Chief Product Officer, I've found this book written by Peter Chung to be incredibly information with both strategic and tactical details on how to manage and optimize costs with regard to cloud infrastructure. Peter defines FinOps as "the merging of financial accountability and management of cloud resources withcloud operations" and this book makes it clear on just how to do that. As any leader in the tech industry knows, cloud services and operations are fundamental to any software or digital platform and navigating how large, complex and technical products such as AWS can be tricky and confusing. This is further compounded by the fact that, it nearly requires you to be an expert in the service in order to even attempt to try to optimize financial and cost metrics. Reading this book is a short cut to understanding how to do that and I can't recommend it more.

Just read this new book, AWS FinOps Simplified: Eliminate cloud waste through practical FinOps by Peter Chung (Author). I learned many useful cost optimization and saving ideas/tools from this book, e.g. cost explorer, Anomaly detection with CloudWatch, Implementing tagging policies with SCP, Auditing with CloudTrail, Trusted Advisor, AWS Solutions, FinOps, AWS Billing Conductor, ... etc.I like Part 2 most, i.e. Part 2: Optimizing Your AWS Resources. It has 4 important chapters on how to optimize Compute, Storage, Networking and Cloud-Native environments (Auto scaling, ML, etc...) which can help SAVE a lot of $$$ !I also like Chap 12 which shows how to leverage and reuse existing customer ready AWS Solutions to save costs by instance scheduler and workspace cost optimizer.
