Using AWS Instance scheduler for Cost Optimization
 
 
Cost optimization is key to creating a well-architected and efficient AWS environment. To really take advantage of AWS’s Pay-as-you-go pricing model, architects need to understand what the average utilization is on their AWS account.

The most common resource creation pattern across major and minor enterprises consists of multiple environments that are decoupled across many AWS accounts.

This decoupling pattern is a best practice for AWS clients and adds a layer of complexity for efficient FinOps cost monitoring and cost optimization.

Optimized Video Encoding with FFmpeg on AWS Graviton Processors
 
 
Recent FFmpeg improvements have increased the performance of fully loaded video workloads on Graviton processors. AWS engineers and the open source community have worked on video encoding tools, such as FFmpeg and the codec libraries, to further optimize for Graviton .

AWS tested encoding the target videos into H.264 and H.265 using the x264 and x265 open source libraries. The cost of encoding on the latest Graviton instance, C7g, is compared with the latest Amazon EC2 x86-based instances, C6i and C6a.
 
 
 
AWS may have broken your Cloudfront API for nearly a month
 
 
If you rely on the x-forwarded-for header with Cloudfront and have enabled Origin Shield, between October the 10th 2022 and November the 2nd 2022 the value of this header may have been incorrect for a percentage of requests.

If your API relies on knowing the clients IP address in any way it may have been partially broken during this time.
