LONDON, Oct. 29, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- AWS managed services provider Logicata announced today that they are offering a free, no obligation Cloud Cost Optimisation Report to existing AWS customers.
Customers can save up to 30% on their AWS usage costs by implementing the report recommendations. With read only access to the AWS Cost and Usage Report, Logicata tooling can identify opportunities for retiring, rightsizing and reserving AWS infrastructure services to ensure that customers are not spending unnecessarily.
The 2019 Rightscale State of The Cloud report highlighted that Public Cloud Cost Optimisation is the number one priority of Enterprise IT Teams, with less than half of respondents leveraging the cloud provider discounting options.
Logicata tooling can identify 'zombie' infrastructure such as unattached EBS (Elastic Block Store) volumes, aged snapshots etc, which can be deleted without impacting the performance or integrity of customer AWS workloads.
Additionally, by analysing the utilisation of AWS EC2 instances, Logicata can identify where provisioned instances are underutilised, and could be 'rightsized' – re-provisioned as a smaller, more optimised instance type, to further reduce spend.
Finally, by identifying infrastructure that needs to be 'always on', Logicata tooling will identify savings to be made by committing to 'Reserved Instances'. AWS customers can save up to 60% on hourly billing prices by committing to instances for 12 months. The greatest savings are to be made by paying annually in advance, however significant savings can still be made by paying monthly for a reserved instance.
Logicata can also make recommendations for resource scheduling – powering infrastructure on and off according to a specific schedule. A common example would be development and test infrastructure only being available during working hours.
Karl Robinson, Director at Logicata said: "AWS have been hugely successful with their Public Cloud offering, attracting businesses large and small to leverage their global platform to lower costs and drive innovation. AWS have made it easy for businesses to adopt their services with few barriers. With this ease of use, there is also a great degree of complexity in fully understanding what users have deployed, and whether this has been done in the most cost effective, secure and well governed manner. With the free AWS Cloud Cost Optimisation report offered by Logicata, AWS customers can gain a glimpse into their environment and understand how much money they may be able to save on their monthly bill, with no investment in tooling, and no long term commitment to an AWS Managed Services provider. We look forward to showing AWS customers how much they could potentially save."
