Kubernetes Cost Optimization: Reducing EKS Bills by 60%
Deep-dive into right-sizing pods, implementing KEDA for event-driven scaling, spot instance node groups, and Kubecost for granular cost attribution.
Building the infrastructure that powers modern software delivery at scale.
Subhash Vadadoriya
Senior DevOps Engineer
Gujarat, India
I'm a passionate Senior DevOps Engineer with 5+ years of experience designing, building, and maintaining cloud-native infrastructure at scale. My expertise spans the full DevOps lifecycle — from infrastructure provisioning with Terraform and CloudFormation, to containerized deployments on Kubernetes and EKS, through automated CI/CD pipelines that ship code faster and safer.
I specialize in AWS cloud architecture, enabling organizations to achieve high availability, security, and cost efficiency. I'm deeply committed to Infrastructure as Code, treating every system as software — version-controlled, tested, and repeatable. My monitoring and observability stack (Grafana, Prometheus, Datadog, ELK) ensures production systems stay healthy and teams get actionable insights before issues become outages.
