What is cloud optimisation?
It’s the process of removing cloud resources you aren’t using and continually matching those resources to organisation requirements. Cloud optimisation ensures you have the right cloud platforms, performing in the right way at the most efficient spend.
Benefits of ANS cloud optimisation
Most cloud environments evolve with new platforms and processes being added over time. Organisations who don’t optimise their cloud environment often find they are paying for resources they don’t use or their platforms are under performing.
Efficiency
Workload performance, compliance are matched against the best fit cloud infrastructure.
Cost savings
Cloud cost optimisation reduces waste and removes those resources you aren’t using.
Greater visibility
You get detailed data on cloud performance so you can make more informed decisions.
Increased productivity
The resulting optimised environment means IT teams spend less time problem solving.
