How can I optimize the cost on our Databricks platform ? Despite some optimization actions I've taken so far it's still difficult to lower the cost. I tried different technics like Vacuum , or shutting down a cluster running after 30 mins but still don't any significant improvement.

Give me more info on what you are doing. Is it something you can run once a day? Run on schedule. Are you cleaning data? Or is it inference? Really does depend

Make sure you're using a cluster that is the right size for your workload. You can greatly reduce the costs by using smaller clusters.
