Why is my bill so high?
Example of deploying a “One-Size-Fits-All” Architecture:
- Using AWS Transit Gateway (TGW) for Connecting PaaS services like S3 and RDS.
- Injecting endpoints using Azure Private Link for functions in a VNET.
- Relying on Virtual Private Gateways (VGW) for IPsec termination.
- Managing ingress/egress appliances and load balancers.
Resulting in:
Distributed endpoints & traffic patterns
Instead of using the same connectivity model everywhere (Networks / Apps / PaaS / APIs / Serverless) custom taylor your connectivity using cheaper methods. ie. VPC spokes ($0.01/GB) vs. TGW ($0.02/GB)
Data Transfer
Using costly NAT gateways for Internet-bound/backhauling traffic can be avoided through more efficient placement.
Within Region Data Transfer
VPC peering: $7,000/Petabyte
TGW: $20,000/Petabyte
Choosing the right method saves money
Inter-Region & Cross-Cloud Data Transfer
Private WANs are 4-5 times cheaper per GB than cloud backbones
Advanced Security & Observability
Right-sizing security based on your requirements by avoiding sending unnecessary traffic to your firewalls can trim 20% alone in costs.
Operations & Monitoring
Switching from navigating multiple dashboards to a single MCN dashboard helps you find issues faster and operate your network with ease.
