# Cloud Cost Optimization
Cloud spend grows silently — every team's "small" addition compounds, and idle resources bill by the hour. Optimization is ongoing, not a one-time project.
## Levers
- **Right-size.** Instances and databases sized for peak load they hit once a quarter waste 90% of capacity. Size for the typical case; burst for peaks.
- **Kill the idle.** Dev/staging environments running 24/7 with no traffic. Schedule them off outside working hours.
- **Commit for the predictable.** Reserved instances / savings plans for steady baseline load; on-demand for spikes.
- ** Architect for the cost.** Caching before compute, archive cold storage, design data lifecycles. Cost is an architectural concern, not just a procurement one.
## Use
- Tag everything. Without attribution, you can't tell which team's spend is growing.
- Set budgets with alerts. Catch runaway cost before the bill lands.
