    I launched AWS Auto Cleanup (https://github.com/servian/aws-auto-cleanup) in April 2019. The goal of the project was to create a tool that would delete unused or abandoned AWS resources. Each supported resource has a maximum time-to-live (TTL) which can be extended by allowlisting your resources in a simple web UI. I've been slowly added support for more commonly used/expensive AWS resources over time. Feedback, comments, suggestions and more always welcome.

    Hello HN. SandCrab is an app I originally had the idea for and hacked together over a couple of weekends last October. More recently, I’ve been working on adding new features to it as I use it more as my daily tool to interact with my s3 buckets. A few recent features I am excited about include the ability to search across all of your buckets using wildcards and regular expressions as well as searching and filtering by metadata (e.g. content type, file size, date created, etc). I’ve also added support for configuring and generating presigned urls directly in the app which is nice. The app…

    Hello HN community! I'm excited to share K8s Cleaner, a tool designed to help you clean up your Kubernetes clusters. As Kubernetes environments grow, they often accumulate unused resources, leading to confusion, waste, and clutter. K8s-cleaner simplifies the process of identifying and removing unnecessary components. The tool scans your Kubernetes clusters for unused or orphaned resources—including pods, services, ingresses, and secrets—and removes them safely. You can fully customize which resources to scan and delete, maintaining complete control over what stays and what goes. Getting…

    Hello HN community! Sri and Brian here from CloudPal (https://www.cloudpal.io/). We are building a tool to help companies reduce their cloud costs by stopping non-production resources when they’re not needed. The problem: Almost every company on the cloud struggles with cost management. While optimizing production costs can be complex, reducing non-production costs should be a straightforward case of shutting down resources when they’re not in use. However, most companies lack an elegant solution for this. The solution: CloudPal - A downtime scheduler for non-production…

    Hey HN: Kaveh here, the founder of https://www.usage.ai/ We launched on Hacker News for the first time early last year, and we've made a lot of progress since then. We've saved tens of millions of dollars for companies, and we are even more excited to announce the launch of a new product: insured reservations for RDS! We worked closely with AWS on this feature and are excited to finally make it generally available. We help companies drive down AWS EC2 & RDS spend. Why? Because the way it's done now is a pain. DevOps and Software Engineers end up spending time managing costs…
