A comment on I Hit $115k/Month with a Status Quo Improvement. Parent comment
1) Switch to the newest instance families
2) Save up the cash then reserve your instances.
3) Don't bother with the provisioned iops volume type, just use GP2 volumes large enough to give you the baseline IOPS you need
4) In general you have more block storage and snapshots than I'd expect, maybe that can be cut back?
