Cutting down AWS cost by $150k per year simply by shutting things off
> The best optimization is simply shutting things off
This is the way.
A similar idea has been bouncing around in my mind for a while now. An ideal, turnkey system would do the following:
- Execute via Lambda (serverless).
- Support automated startup and shutdown of various AWS resources on a schedule influenced by specially formatted tags.
- Enable resources to be brought back up out of schedule when demand dictates.
- Operate as a TCP/HTTP proxy that can delay clients so that a given service can be started when it is dormant or, even better, the service isn't serverless but you want it to be. This can't work for everything, but perhaps enough things such that the need to run always on services is reduced.
Cloud Custodian [1] can purportedly do some of this, but I've been reluctant to learn yet another YAML-based DSL to use it.
So this is my "make things designed to be always-on serverless instead" project and the work AWS has done to make Java apps function on Lambda keeps me thinking about the potential to take things that 1) have a relatively long startup time and 2) are designed to be long running service loops, and find a way to force them into the serverless execution model.

When have you screwed up, bad?
Goal was to clear up anything old and set us up to rotate keys in use. Why did I do it in the end of December? It was a quarterly goal and I learned to push those across the line if I wanted a good review. Great incentive, that one. I used Cloud Custodian for this. It has a terrible bug where the code says you'll be acting on days since the key was used but actually is reading days since it was created.

Show HN: Apprise (Notifications) Supports 100 Services Now
- [a web service (you host)](https://github.com/caronc/apprise-api) that can act as a sidecar. This solution allows you to keep your notification configuration in one place instead of across multiple servers (or within multiple programs). This one is for both Admins and Devs.
A lot of systems have already adapted to it such as HomeAssistant, Apache Airflow, ChangeDetection, Uptime Kuma and many others (<https://github.com/caronc/apprise/wiki/showcase#integrations>) which shows the commonality. Mailrise is an incredibly talented program that converts Emails sent to it to trigger notifications via Apprise.
*What else does it do?*
- Emoji Support (:rocket: -> ) built right into it!
- Show HN: LDAP Watchdog: Realtime LDAP monitoring for detecting directory changes
- Created a docker app to notify on new device connections

ntfy is a great tool. What do you use it for?
I tried it and it was nice but ultimately I switched to apprise
-
Self Hosted Notification Service
While I'm sure of Gotify and ntfy.sh, I'm not sure if Apprise will do the needful because on its github page(https://github.com/caronc/apprise) it lists all the paid and free notification services for integration so I'm assuming it is just a library like the one I integrated for my django api (onesignal library).
