Cloud Cost Optimization

Structured cloud cost optimization reducing spend, improving visibility, and enabling scalable, governed, and predictable cloud operations.

Project Overview

The Problem

The organization faced rising cloud costs, limited visibility, and inefficient governance, causing overspending, idle resources, and reactive billing management. Key challenges included:

Rising monthly cloud bills increase overall financial inefficiency.
Limited visibility into costs across resources and services.
Over-provisioned virtual machines wasting unnecessary compute resources.
Idle disks, snapshots, and network components consuming costs.
No tagging standards causing poor ownership and cost allocation.
Reactive cost monitoring delaying optimization and financial planning.

Solution Provided

Icanio implemented a structured cloud cost optimization framework, improving visibility, rightsizing resources, enforcing governance, and establishing scalable monitoring processes:

Performed detailed cost and usage analysis for baseline spend.
Rightsized underutilized compute resources to optimize cloud efficiency.
Removed unused and orphaned infrastructure components safely and effectively.
Optimized non-production environments to lower unnecessary expenses.
Implemented tagging standards for ownership, tracking, and accountability.
Established periodic cost monitoring and review processes for governance.
