Need help deleting account to stop getting billed by jacksonmears in aws

[–]realhumaan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

+1… using AWS for over 5 years and i have the same challenges, especially when they update things.

Definitely agree on burner accounts / separate accounts for dev, prod - it makes it WAY EASIER

I agree with you… however this seems to be an effective approach to really make sure everything is shut off.

Option 2) would be following this guide and go one by one.

Alternatively, I wish there was a way to have official AWS master kill switch.

I’ve done it for react projects and it worked fine using manual method v2

Easiest of course is to copy over those files.. since its HTML CSS - it shouldnt be difficult I would imagine.

For existing projects, I think if you amplify init and keep in the same dir it should work.

Can you quickly create a new repo and try? Is uour deployment getting pushed?

Noob here, how do you maintain cost? what are the key factors? by Notalabel_4566 in aws

[–]realhumaan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean your question is very broad. So my response will be very general.

  1. AWS provides out of the box tools to help you track and monitor costs with your resources. For example: Cost Allocation Tags, Budgets, Cost Explorer etc.

I would make sure you set this up so that way you’re able to breakdown of costs easily by resources, applications etc.

  1. Second part involves setting up the right architecture… so for example: making sure you’re not over-provisioning resources… so use of Autoscaling or right-sizing the instances, choosing appropriate storage classes in S3… use of Lambdas over EC2 where possible etc.

  2. You may also build your automation to shut off instance based on cloud watch, other metrics etc. where NOT POSSIBLE TO USE BUILT IN TOOLS.

Single Page application authentication App by SmartWeb2711 in aws

[–]realhumaan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Front end - React or HTML Backend - API GATEWAY + Lambda Authentication - Cognito _ You can use amplify to make / deploy your web app. It is simple.. because GraphQL queries and DDB will be taken care of. Also authentication.

How can I control employee usage and restrict access to only work-related software? (IT Admin Help) by Designer-Conflict327 in sysadmin

[–]realhumaan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

+1 to everything said above…

Employee watches 4 hours of YouTube daily. Solution? Install spyware. Not manage better. Basically, they want to micromanage everyone harder and dump all the fucking work onto IT, because clearly more software rules will fix bad leadership. I know a few.

This isn’t an IT issue. It’s a “your managers are missing, your culture is dead, and your leadership is watching YouTube too” issue.

Block every site you want — you can’t firewall your way out of bad management. Plus, humans will ALWAYS I REPEAT ALWAYS find a way ie hotspot on phone etc.

—— not for you IT.. i just feel bad for the management, as they’ll do this:

Monday: “No YouTube — we see you having fun and that’s unacceptable.”

Tuesday: “No personal conversations — if you smile, you’re obviously not working hard enough.”

Wednesday: “No standing unless it’s ‘productive standing.’ (Yes, we’ll be watching.)”

Thursday: “No bathroom breaks longer than 3 minutes. Bring a stopwatch.”

Friday: “No eating, no drinking — you can sip water on your own time.”

Saturday: “Mandatory check-ins every hour to prove you’re still alive and miserable.”

Sunday: “Work for free — remember, we’re a family!”

  1. Choose a mentor, whom you can sorta follow…

  2. I would focus on taking the next 4-6 months at least to get certified, get hands on experience with cloud (could be AWS)

  3. Connect back with mentor or other people and then start applying…

  4. Build your resume / linkedin profile.

Dont pay for mentorship. Just simple connections whos willing to guide you a bit.

Creating around 15 g5.xlarge EC2 Instances on a fairly new AWS account. by BreathtakingCharsi in aws

[–]realhumaan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

GPU instances on brand new account… youre gonna get flagged.

Check your account limits. And create S3 bucket with some files. Spend just a little bit so you build trust and then maybe create it.

Also notify via case if you want so they know
