Last quarter marked a big milestone for ProsperOps—we expanded beyond rate optimization automation into cloud workload optimization with the launch of ProsperOps Scheduler™. We also introduced two new FinOps KPIs to measure the impact of workload optimization and total cloud optimization. And as of this quarter, ProsperOps is available on the Azure Marketplace, rounding out our presence across all three major cloud platforms.
Here’s a look at the key ProsperOps product updates from the second quarter of 2025.
ProsperOps Scheduler: The only cloud resource scheduler to integrate with rate optimization
ProsperOps Scheduler enables teams to automate resource state changes on weekly schedules while integrating seamlessly with Autonomous Discount Management (ADM). Synchronization between workload schedules and ADM eliminates lag between usage changes and commitment portfolio optimization, resulting in cost reduction outcomes not possible with disparate tools. It enables engineering control of workload schedules while providing FinOps with centralized visibility into resource hours and costs avoided.
ProsperOps Scheduler is the first product in our cloud workload optimization suite, Autonomous Resource Management™, and is now available in early access to our customers.

View comprehensive rate optimization outcomes with Savings Scopes
We recently released an expanded scope of Effective Savings Rate (ESR) that reflects results from all rate optimization tactics, including Spot and Enterprise Discount Program (EDP) or Private Pricing Agreement (PPA). Savings Scopes enable customers to access and visualize AWS savings data specifically related to commitment-based discounts through “RI/SP Only” view, and a new comprehensive ESR scope that includes all rate optimization savings, called “All Discounts” view. Customers can toggle between the two scopes to quantify the impact of their overall rate optimization strategy.

ProsperOps is now available on Azure marketplace
With its addition to the Azure Marketplace, ProsperOps is now available across all three major cloud marketplaces. Organizations can easily procure ProsperOps directly through the Azure Marketplace, simplifying expense management and driving ROI through automated cloud savings with ProsperOps. ProsperOps charges for billed through Azure Marketplace count toward your MACC, enabling you to meet spend thresholds more efficiently.

Data Export feature expanded to include new savings dataset
Last quarter we launched Data Export to enable customers to programmatically integrate ProsperOps data into existing workflows and third-party tools. This quarter, we expanded Data Export to include:
- Savings dashboard data for AWS RDS, ElastiCache, OpenSearch, Redshift, and MemoryDB
- Support for the newly launched RI/SP Only and All Discounts scopes

New FinOps metrics to measure cloud optimization impact
We are excited to introduce two new FinOps KPIs – Effective Avoidance Rate (EAR) and Effective Cost Optimization Rate (ECOR).
Effective Avoidance Rate quantifies the ROI of workload optimization just like how Effective Savings Rate measures ROI of rate optimization. Effective Cost Optimization Rate measures the total economic impact of cloud optimization, unifying rate and workload optimization. By maximizing ECOR, organizations can identify the balance of rate and workload optimization that creates the best overall economic outcome.
ProsperOps support for Google Cloud billing model changes
Google Cloud is moving to a new spend-based CUD billing model, phasing out credits in favor of direct discounted pricing, beginning as soon as July 15th 2025. This will simplify billing and broaden discount eligibility for Google Cloud customers. ProsperOps is working to fully support these changes by the January 21, 2026 deadline. For more information on these changes, visit this article.
Stay tuned as we keep building new capabilities to help you save on cloud spend through rate and workload optimization. 😉
In the meantime, check out our newly released 2025 Rate Optimization Insights on Google Cloud Compute: a data-backed look at savings performance across $250M+ in compute usage. The report highlights key trends in Effective Savings Rate (ESR), CUD adoption, and the evolving strategies driving better cost outcomes on Google Cloud.
Keep prospering! 🖖
