Graviton Savings Dashboard: Simplifying Graviton Adoption and Unlocking Cost Savings
Introduction
Customers can feel overwhelmed when it comes to navigating the complexities of Graviton adoption.
The presenters, Rosa Corley and Raji Guptan, are here to unveil a solution that will help simplify the Graviton adoption process and unlock significant cost savings.
AWS Graviton Overview
AWS Graviton is a custom-designed processor made for Amazon EC2, offering up to 40% better price-performance and up to 60% less energy consumption.
Despite these benefits, Graviton adoption can be challenging, which is why the presenters have developed a new tool: the AWS Graviton Savings Dashboard.
The AWS Graviton Savings Dashboard
Purpose
The dashboard serves two key purposes:
Provides insights into your current Graviton usage.
Identifies savings opportunities for Amazon EC2, RDS, ElastiCache, and OpenSearch.
Data Sources and Architecture
The dashboard utilizes three data sources:
AWS Cost and Usage Report
AWS SDK
Pricing file
The data is processed using Amazon S3, Amazon Athena, and Amazon QuickSight to provide the interactive dashboard.
The architecture is highly scalable and fully automated, handling data from multiple payers across multiple regions and linked accounts.
Deployment
To deploy the dashboard, you need the AWS Cost and Usage Report and the Optimization Data Collector Lab with the Inventory module.
The deployment process involves three steps:
Upgrade pip (Python's package manager).
Deploy the CID CMD tool.
Deploy the dashboard using the CID CMD deploy command.
Live Demo
Current Usage and Savings
The dashboard is organized into tabs for different services (EC2, RDS, ElastiCache, and OpenSearch).
The EC2 tab provides insights into your current Graviton adoption, including:
Savings achieved and coverage percentage
Account-level insights on Graviton adoption
Realized savings and coverage over time
Granular insights on instance types and associated savings
Graviton Potential
The Graviton Opportunity section helps identify clear targets for Graviton adoption, including:
Additional potential savings
Ease of migration to Graviton
Potential Graviton savings by cost
Breakdown of savings by linked accounts, instance types, and purchasing options
Resources and Tools
The dashboard provides documentation and tools to help you jumpstart your Graviton adoption journey.
Conclusion
The AWS Graviton Savings Dashboard empowers you to make data-driven decisions and jump-start your Graviton adoption.
