Cloud costs optimization

Cut your cloud bill in half without compromising uptime or performance.

Best practices

There’s plenty of advice online about reducing cloud costs. It typically comes down to the following:

• Analyze spending, attribute costs to teams, and configure budgets and alerts.
• Remove redundant resources and automatically shut down unused environments.
• Scale down underutilized instances, evaluate different instance types.
• Review backup retention policies and choose the most cost-effective storage for each use case.
• Purchase savings plans and reserved instances, and consider using spot instances where applicable.
• Explore services from other cloud providers.

All of these practices make perfect sense, and they’re an important part of our cloud optimization work. But there’s an opportunity to go further.

Advanced optimization

The biggest cost savings often come from changing how an application works. Agencies focused solely on cloud cost optimization rarely explore these opportunities because they require a deep understanding of the system and take significantly more time and effort.

Because we build software for our clients, we can assess how an application is designed and identify changes that could substantially reduce infrastructure costs without compromising performance or uptime.

Save 50% or more

In our experience, clients optimizing their cloud costs for the first time typically save at least 30%. Savings of 50% are well within reach, and some clients save even more.

Initial assessment takes just a few days

1. We sign an NDA and get read-only access to your infrastructure and code.
2. We review your setup, talk to your team, and share our initial findings within a few days.
3. Together, we agree on an action plan, then put it into practice.
