About
This project optimized the cloud infrastructure of a U.S. IT services company to reduce costs and improve performance. Our investigation identified several areas for optimization, including unused computing resources, inconsistent storage, and a lack of savings plans. We helped to optimize resources, implemented better policies for storage, and improved internal traffic flow through architecture redesigns and dockerization.
Challenge, approach, and impact
Rising and Unpredictable AWS Infrastructure Costs
The client faced steadily increasing AWS costs driven by overprovisioned compute resources, unused services, and limited visibility into actual infrastructure usage. Cost allocation was fragmented across teams, making it difficult to identify inefficiencies, control spending, or forecast cloud expenses without impacting system performance.
