AWS Graviton Weeky - Issue # 44 awsgravitonweekly.com

Hey Reader.

Welcome to Issue # 77 of AWS Graviton Weekly, which will be focused on sharing everything that happened in the past week related to AWS Silicon: from March 1, 2024, to March 8, 2024.

1 thing you can't miss in this edition:

The 2024 Kubernetes Cost Benchmark Report conducted by CAST.AI

To give you a quick perspective on why you should read this report if you are currently using Kubernetes in the cloud, this is one of the key findings in the report:

In clusters with 50 CPUs or more, only 13% of the CPUs that were provisioned were utilized, on average. Memory utilization was slightly higher at 20% on average.

The insight here? Probably you are overspending money on Kubernetes. This is why we highly recommend working with the CAST.AI crew, to identify the bottlenecks in your infrastructure and save money on the process.

Enjoy

Recommendation of the week: 2024 Kubernetes Cost Benchmark Report
