How do you assess our current cloud usage and costs?

We perform a surgical audit of your cloud environment, reviewing patterns, resource allocation, billing statements, and your workload architecture etc, to identify realistic cost-saving opportunities. What we mean by realistic is that we recognise the reality of any architecture isn’t perfect and re-designing the entire stack to save cost may not be a viable option given the priority of the team as such our recommendations are often achieved with minimal adjustments with little to no interruption in your team’s day-to-day operation.
