AWS OLA: Maximizing efficiency and cost savings

The program AWS Optimization and Licensing Assessment (OLA) is designed to assess and optimize both your licenses and environments on AWS. This improves efficiency, reduces costs, and ensures compliance. The comprehensive review covers multiple aspects of your cloud environment. This includes instance types, storage, networking, autoscaling, and license types. We identify areas for optimization and cost savings.

Performing regular assessments with AWS OLA ensures that your AWS infrastructure is efficient and cost-effective. This maximizes the value of your cloud investments.

Maximize the value of your AWS investment

Amazon Web Services is the leading cloud computing platform for businesses of all sizes, offering a wide range of services. However, the variety of services and configurations can make optimizing an environment on AWS a challenge.

Importance of evaluation and optimization

As usage requirements and workloads change, it is crucial to periodically evaluate and optimize deployments to realize the full benefits in efficiency and cost savings.

Key components of a successful evaluation

To optimize services and licenses on AWS, we must first understand the services and configurations used and how they impact performance and costs. AWS OLA offers a comprehensive assessment that helps customers identify areas for improvement in migration costs, visibility into the current environment, utilization rates, and how to optimize. Some key areas within the assessment are:

1. Instance types and sizesAWS offers a variety of instance types and sizes to meet a variety of workload requirements. Periodically reviewing these parameters ensures that they are optimized for your specific workloads.
2. Reserved Instances: AWS Reserved Instances or Hosts can provide significant cost savings over On-Demand Instances. Evaluating the usage and performance of these instances allows you to take advantage of AWS's scalability and flexibility, adjusting as needed.
3. StorageAWS offers storage options such as Elastic Block Store (EBS), Simple Storage Service (S3), and Glacier. Choosing the right storage type based on the frequency of data access and the size required for your workloads is critical for efficiency.
4. ConnectivityNetwork services such as Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) and Elastic Load Balancing (ELB) are crucial to ensuring secure cloud access and maintaining efficient connectivity.
5. Auto Scaling: AWS provides Auto Scaling to automatically adjust capacity and maintain consistent performance at the lowest possible cost. Reviewing scaling policies based on workloads is essential.

License evaluation

A crucial component of the AWS OLA program is the license assessment, which reviews how effectively you use your own or third-party licenses, identifying cost-saving opportunities and ensuring compliance with terms and conditions. The assessment includes:

• Review of license agreements: Ensure compliance with the terms and conditions of existing agreements with the supplier and AWS.
• Evaluate license utilization: Greater visibility into licensing scenarios with license-included or Bring Your Own License (BYOL) instances, so you pay only for what you need and avoid unnecessary dependencies.
• Identifying cost saving opportunities: Analyze license utilization to identify savings opportunities, such as reducing overused licenses.

Benefits of an AWS OLA-based assessment

Starting an assessment using AWS OLA principles can generate an optimization plan that ensures cost savings, facilitates decision-making, and optimizes the digitalization strategy. The results can involve reconfiguring the environment, adjusting licensing agreements, or changing usage patterns, leading to greater efficiency and profitability.
