Cloud cost optimisation that finds the waste and names who fixes it

Why does the cloud bill keep growing when usage hasn’t?

Usually because resources are easy to start and nobody’s job to stop. A test server left running, disk volumes and snapshots from machines deleted months ago, a database sized for a launch-day spike, a load balancer pointing at nothing — each is small on its own, and few appear on the invoice under a name anyone recognises.

So the first step is a cost breakdown by service and by team, which puts a name against each line of spend. Where resources carry no team tags, that gap is itself a finding, because a bill nobody can attribute is a bill nobody will cut.

What do you change, and what do you leave as a plan?

Idle and orphaned resources are cleaned up as part of the tune-up. Bigger decisions are handed to you as a plan rather than made for you: which servers and databases to resize, and whether committing to a steady level of usage through AWS Savings Plans or Reserved Instances suits your workload. Commitments trade flexibility for a lower rate, so that choice stays with you.

Everything ends up in a written savings report that names an owner for each action, because a saving nobody owns tends to stay on the list. It gives you something to act on, and something to check against next month’s bill.

Where do autoscaling, caching and backups come in?

Autoscaling is about paying for capacity only when traffic needs it, and caching about not asking the database for the same answer twice. The review looks at both directions: scaling down saves money only if the system still scales up when traffic arrives, and a cache that takes load off the database can cost less than a bigger database.

The backup and restore drill is there because the quickest way to cut a cloud bill is to delete things, and some of those things may be backups. Restoring from a real backup shows that cutting cost has not quietly cost you the ability to recover — which is why the package name says reliability as well as cost.

What is not included, and what we will not promise

We do not promise a savings figure before we have seen your account; the report says what we found. Commitment purchases are your decision and are paid to AWS, like all AWS charges. Re-architecting your application is not part of the tune-up.

If the review shows the environment needs rebuilding rather than trimming — nothing defined in code, no staging, releases copied across by hand — Cloud Infrastructure Setup starts at ₹25,000 and is delivered in up to 30 days, with CI/CD, monitoring and backups set up from the start.
