Architecture & Efficiency Assessments
Evaluate infrastructure design, utilization, and resiliency. Detect waste, over-provisioning, and technical debt. Benchmark efficiency versus peer workloads.
We examine the architectural decisions that drive long-term costs and operational risk. Our analysis identifies immediate optimization opportunities and structural inefficiencies that compound over time.
Contract & Commitment Analysis
Review Reserved Instances, Savings Plans, and marketplace obligations. Identify renewal cliffs, under-utilized commitments, and breakage. Model renegotiation scenarios and savings opportunities.
Cloud commitments are complex financial instruments that can represent significant assets or liabilities. We decode the fine print and quantify the real value and risk embedded in these agreements.
We Analyze
- Reserved Instance portfolios
- Savings Plan coverage and utilization
- Enterprise discount programs (EDP/PPA)
- Marketplace software commitments
- Contract breakage scenarios
Value Creation Tools
- 100-day optimization playbook
