AWS Glue is one way to waste a lot of money, due to memory allocation issues. It's sometimes hard to debug and optimize. Also, even when using the cost estimator, the actual cost is less clear until after the run.

It'd be cool to have Glue surface preliminary reports on estimated job performance and areas for improvement (e.g., spark optimizations), before the job run begins.
