AWS Cloud Billing

Transparent, Scalable, and Optimised Cost Control

Managing cloud costs effectively is a priority for organisations that rely on Amazon Web Services (AWS) for critical workloads. The AWS billing system gives businesses full visibility over their cloud usage, empowering them to monitor spend, forecast trends, and take action to optimise costs. With the right approach to AWS billing management, businesses can align IT resources with financial goals, reduce waste, and ensure cloud investments deliver maximum value.Whether you are using a serverless compute service in AWS, such as AWS Lambda, or managing relational databases through AWS RDS billing, D55 provides expert AWS Billing services to help you maintain cost transparency and control.

Understanding the AWS Billing Console

The AWS Billing Console is the central hub for monitoring and managing cloud charges. It combines key billing and account management services in AWS into one interface, allowing you to review detailed invoices, analyse usage patterns, and set cost controls. With tools such as the AWS Cost Explorer and AWS Budgets, you can turn raw usage data into actionable insights.Through the console, you can also enable AWS Consolidated Billing to combine multiple accounts into a single AWS billing account, simplifying administration and unlocking potential savings.

  • Key AWS Billing and Cost Management Features

    Billing and Cost Management in AWS:
    AWS offers a suite of cost monitoring tools, including AWS billing analytics for in-depth reporting. You can download AWS detailed billing reports or integrate with BI platforms to link cloud spend directly to business metrics.

    AWS Billing Tool Integration:
    From tracking Amazon Cloud Billing trends to drilling into specific services like AWS billing Lambda, AWS billing S3, and AWS CloudFront billing, the billing tool gives you visibility across all aspects of cloud usage.

    Savings Plans and Reserved Instances:
    For predictable workloads, committing to Savings Plans or Reserved Instances can significantly reduce long-term costs.

  • AWS Billing for Modern Data Platforms

    Many organisations undertaking data modernisation or data platform modernisation initiatives experience unexpected cloud costs. Migrating workloads, running analytics, and hosting modern applications can increase usage quickly. Our AWS billing optimisation services help businesses modernize data cost-effectively, ensuring that spending remains aligned with project timelines and business outcomes.

  • Real-World AWS Billing Scenarios

    An organisation migrating to a serverless compute service in AWS might see fluctuating costs as functions scale. With proactive AWS billing management console monitoring and tailored budgets, sudden spikes can be detected early. Similarly, a business running Amazon Web Services billing for global operations can use AWS consolidated billing to pool accounts and benefit from aggregated usage discounts.

  • Best Practices for AWS Billing and Accounts

    • Regularly review spending via the AWS billing management console and Cost Explorer
    • Enable alerts through AWS Budgets to prevent overspending
    • Tag resources for precise cost allocation
    • Monitor specific service charges, including AWS billing S3 and AWS RDS billing, to identify optimisation opportunities
    • Leverage Reserved Instances where workloads are predictable

What our Clients Say

“While we led the initial business scoping and discussions with key stakeholders, it was a very smooth process working the D55 team to expand on this vision. The D55 team took ownership of building the solution and worked closely with us throughout the process. The quality of the work, combined with the excellent support during the handover, is exactly what we value in a partner.”

D55 enabled us to migrate from on-premise to a cloud-based solution, resulting in monthly cost savings of about 40%. Cloud-based systems give us a high level of resiliency and an unlimited capacity to scale. We’ve really put in place the foundations for later phases of work and further cost reduction as we scale. It was a partnership as opposed to a service - we work well together.
