Description

The meeting reviews billing trends across cloud providers and discusses ongoing cost optimization efforts, with a focus on GCP, AWS, Azure, and Fastly traffic analysis. Key actions include monitoring GCP spend due to scaling tests, assessing AWS cost increases linked to registry traffic and migration from CNCF, and exploring cost breakdowns for Azure to prevent overspending. A new UI project is proposed for early community feedback to improve test tooling.

Key Takeaways:
• GCP spend increased due to scaling tests, particularly 5K node tests; this is expected and not considered a risk 2:24.
• AWS costs rose due to registry traffic and test scaling, with a noted 8% increase; cost shifts are attributed to migration from CNCF to user accounts 3:46.
• Fastly traffic increased by ~10% with fluctuating bandwidth; logs are now being enabled in DataDog to identify top-downloaded files 7:45.
• Digital Ocean costs remain high despite cleanup of old artifacts; CNCF needs better access to support teams 12:02.
• Azure overspending is a concern beyond 2026; a resource group-level cost breakdown is recommended to identify major spenders 13:03.
• A new test UI project is proposed with a dedicated DNS entry for early community feedback to improve performance and ownership 15:50.

Cost monitoring and optimization across all platforms remain priorities, with a focus on transparency and early feedback for new tools.

So welcome everyone. We we are November the 5th. This is Ken from bi-weekly meeting. So a reminder to be nice to each other during the meeting. So let's going. Do we have a note taker first? Anyone willing to be the note taker? >> I can try to take. Okay, thank you. Uh oh, sorry. Let me share my screen first. Let's zoom in some bit here. Uh, I don't think there's any anyone new to the call, so we can skip the welcome unless I'm wrong. Okay, let's keep it. Billing review. So, Mario posted on Slack basically some reports. I don't I think most of the findings are accurate. I'm not sure I want to go over all the billing over all the cloud providers. So if like anyone has a question feel free to raise your hand or drop in the chat. Yeah, I think we're pretty much good. >> Yeah, Mario is here. I…
