    Cost Optimization

    Issue: Small AWS deployment with little management oversight and a lack of cloud skills internal to the organization moving from traditional infrastructure to SaaS and cloud based solutions.

     

    What we did

    1. AWS Audit
    2. Cost Optimization Review
    3. Ongoing Monitoring

     

    Result:

    • Eliminated unused storage volumes and the old application server no longer in use, the charges for AWS resulted in a savings of 51% per month.
    • We’ll continue to monitor AWS billing and finance to ensure maintenance of savings and identify other future changes.
