Cloud Audit
Save money and stay in control
We can almost guarantee that you are wasting money on your cloud spend, but this could be the least of your problems. If you don't know where all your digital assets are, who has access to them, and whom they are communicating with then you are leaving your business massively exposed. Our audit is non-intrusive, quick, and accurate, it is just your decision whether you action any of the findings in the audit.
Cost Management - Public Cloud
Rolling Monthly v Reserved Instance
Quickly connect all your public cloud environments to the ClearSky Cloud Manager platform to gain insights into financial best practices and whether you can save money by moving workloads to reserved instances.
Time Management - Public Cloud
Shut Down When You Can
Most public cloud instances are costed per hour, with memory and compute charged separately from storage. If the ONLY element that is perpetual is the storage, then shutdown memory and compute on idle workloads whenever possible.
Resource Management - Public Cloud
Rightsize Virtual Machines
With a rental environment, we ONLY need to provision for what we need today, there is NO return on investment with over-specifying workloads in a public cloud, you are just wasting money
Analysis Report - Public Cloud
Optimisation Recommendations
At the end of the audit, you will be presented with a comprehensive (instance by instance) report across all three disciplines analysed. Each instance will have a report on its current state, along with recommendations to achieve an optimised state.
Cost Normalisation - Private Cloud
Building a Consistent Commercial Model
ClearSky Cloud can work with you as part of our private cloud audit to normalise the pricing between public and private clouds. We can create tee-shirt size VMs that mirror public cloud instances, and therefore you can dynamically compare price/performance across your hybrid cloud estate.
Time Management - Private Cloud
Shut Down When You Can
Most private cloud instances are costed per hour, with memory and compute charged separately from storage. If the ONLY element that is perpetual is the storage, then shutdown memory and compute on idle workloads whenever possible.
Resource Management - Private Cloud
Rightsize Virtual Machines
Over specifying machine resources is another die-hard habit from working with depreciating assets, where decisions needed to be made with a far longer-term vision in mind. With a rental environment, we ONLY need to provision for what we need today.
Analysis Report - Private Cloud
Optimisation Recommendations
At the end of the audit, you will be presented with a comprehensive (instance by instance) report across the two disciplines analysed. Each instance will have a report on its current state, along with recommendations to achieve an optimised state.
