Show HN: The Cloud Cost Handbook
- StratusBen 5y agoHi everyone, I'm a Co-Founder of Vantage. Today we are launching "The Cloud Cost Handbook" which can be found at https://handbook.vantage.sh/ https://handbook.vantage.sh/ - a set of guides and best practices related to cloud costs for developers, engineering leaders and finance counterparts. We're hoping to distill complex cloud cost terms and concepts into a set of "plain english" guides that anyone can access. From speaking with our customers and community we've found that cloud cost knowledge is typically "tribal knowledge" held by a few key people at an organization but not well known amongst broader community of developers. We're still early and we're looking for contributions and support (feel free to give the repo a star!) to build this up over time - please let us know what you think!
- jelledb 5y agoThis looks really cool! I know how painful it can be to manage costs in the cloud so it's great that this is available as a free to use resource. We also recently launched an open-source multi-cloud CLI for doing high-level governance in AWS, GCP & Azure. Reading the part about tags in the handbook, it might be useful for some to use our CLI for improving your tagging strategy.
