In late 2017, IDT did an AWS "This is My Architecture" video. The video talks about how they handle secrets within their environment...and some configuration information too.
Now, a few years later, I react to that video and see what's stood the test of time, what could be done simpler given today's technology, and generally critique the design against the AWS Well-Architected Framework in a mini AWS Well-Architected Review.
The original video: youtu.be/g0M0PN2bFFA

![Can We Improve How FT.com Got Developers To Focus on Costs in 2017? (Reaction)
In late 2017, the Financial Times spoke with AWS to discuss their solution for cost optimization.
This is a tricky area because builders are usually focused on making sure their solution works first, then they look to performance. Cost is usually way, way down the list. If it even makes the list.
The solution the Financial Times came up with is quite clever and delivered results quickly for them.
Now, a few years later, I react to that video and see whats stood the test of time, what could be done simpler given todays technology, and generally critique the design against the AWS Well-Architected Framework in a mini AWS Well-Architected Review.
