Welcome to this lesson on container and serverless cost savings in AWS.
Understand the cost implications of containerized and serverless deployments in AWS.
Identify strategies to optimize container costs, including managing idle resources and scaling EC2 instances effectively.
Evaluate the benefits and limitations of serverless architectures (for example, AWS Lambda, Fargate) in terms of cost, scalability, and performance.
Compare EKS (Elastic Kubernetes Service) with AWS Lambda to determine the most cost-effective deployment model for different workloads.
Recognize the impact of Lambda cold starts on performance and cost, and explore techniques to mitigate cold start latency.
This lesson is intended for technical AWS cloud engineers who are looking to deepen their expertise in AWS cost optimization, specifically with AWS container and serverless services.
To get the most out of this lesson, you should already be familiar with AWS container services such as ECS, EKS, and Fargate, as well as serverless services like AWS Lambda.
