5 Ways to Achieve High Cloud Elasticity at the Lowest Cost

In this complimentary training, presenters Lauren Nelson (VP and Research Director at Forrester) and Andrew Hillier (CTO at Densify) reveal five practical ways to achieve high elasticity in your cloud environment at the lowest cost.

In this video, you will learn:

• Current trends for running apps in the public cloud, and key challenges that Infrastructure and Operations (I&O) teams face everyday
• A systematic framework to tackle these challenges from both financial and resource perspectives
• Guidance on how to consume cloud in a financially-prudent way, including tips on effective cost management and optimal purchasing strategies for AWS Savings Plans
• Strategies and tactics to precisely select the right cloud resources and how to align key stakeholders
• Steps to leverage automation frameworks for resource optimization with integration into DevOps CI/CD pipelines

Why Is This Important?

I&O teams are doubling down on public cloud, aiming to achieve better elasticity and resiliency while trying to keep the cost under control. Although this seems simple in theory, these can often be conflicting goals, and in practice, there are many hidden complexities.

A high cloud bill is often just a symptom of a bigger underlying problem—the inherent difficulty in selecting the right resources from millions of options—and, doing this in a way that meets your applications’ fluctuating demands. This is complicated further by the different purchasing options that are available, compounding the technical challenge with an equally daunting procurement challenge.
