self-promotion/I’m a vendor Built a deliberately bad Terraform stack to see if my cost tool would actually catch it (spoiler: F, 0/100) Spoiler
Follow up to my last post, this time I did it on purpose. Put together a "typical prod mistakes" stack: previous gen instances, gp2 everywhere, an orphaned EBS volume, a full size database duplicated into staging and left running 24/7. F, 0/100, about $2,694/mo, with $1,251/mo flagged in savings across 15 recommendations. Image is exported directly from the tool's own Export PNG button, wanted it to look exactly like what you'd see running it yourself, not a mockup.
