Challenge
Despite a mature cost optimization program, use of Reserved Instances (RIs), and support from a third-party RI commitment broker, the company was only achieving a 26% ESR (85th percentile) for its $17 million per month AWS compute spend.
Hourly infrastructure volatility, manual optimization and a process hinging on verification between the broker and engineering created inefficiency. The customer experienced inadequate coverage, discount management and overcommitment.
As a result of these inefficiencies, the customer failed to realize nearly $3 million in potential savings.
