As Herd PO I want to reduce AWS costs without making functional compromise
Later we might need to take additional cost-saving steps but initially let's see what we can do without compromising anything.
Acceptance Criteria
Time-box analysis has been performed to identify low-hanging fruit cost savings opportunities
Cost per stack is reduced by >= 25%
Cost per hour per stack is reduced by >= 25%
Technical notes:
Eliminate RDS snapshot when RDS is created and prior to RDS deletion
Remove RDS snapshots from all previous Herd-MDL stacks
Reduce instance size for EC2, RDS, and EMR -- but ensure MDLT still works and there is some room to scale the environment for POC or lightweight operations
