Hello HN! Daniele, Ilia, and Thomas here to share Cloudthread’s new Cost Savings Hub to help companies surface and eliminate cloud waste. We’re putting our money where our mouth is: for the next two weeks, find over $500 in monthly AWS savings with Cloudthread’s Savings Hub or we’ll give you a $100 Amazon Gift Card. More context: https://www.cloudthread.io/aws-save-or-get-paid Most cloud infrastructure managers know there’s waste in their cloud environment but it’s challenging and time consuming to 1) surface all the waste, 2) convert those opportunities into actualized…

Hey HN: Kaveh here, the founder of https://www.usage.ai/ We help companies drive down AWS EC2 spend. Why? Because the way it's done now is a pain. DevOps and Software Engineers end up spending time managing costs rather than focusing on business problems. Previous to founding Usage, I worked on high-performance computing research at JP Morgan Chase and as a software engineer at a number of smaller startups. Here's how it works: We are typically brought in by a DevOps manager to cut AWS EC2 costs. The app is entirely self-service and the savings are generated automatically,…

Hey HN: Kaveh here, the founder of https://www.usage.ai/ We launched on Hacker News for the first time early last year, and we've made a lot of progress since then. We've saved tens of millions of dollars for companies, and we are even more excited to announce the launch of a new product: insured reservations for RDS! We worked closely with AWS on this feature and are excited to finally make it generally available. We help companies drive down AWS EC2 & RDS spend. Why? Because the way it's done now is a pain. DevOps and Software Engineers end up spending time managing costs…

Hey HN: I'm Kaveh, the founder of Usage (https://www.usage.ai/) We help companies drive down AWS costs. Why? Because the way it's done now is a pain. Stakeholders, especially engineers, are required to spend unnecessary time manually finding underutilized or overly expensive EC2s. We believe the optimization process should be done automatically through a series of sophisticated algorithms. At the moment, there are over 70,000 AWS EC2 prices - doing that manually just won't scale at most organizations. My background is in software engineering. Previous to founding Usage, I…

Hello HN community! Sri and Brian here from CloudPal (https://www.cloudpal.io/). We are building a tool to help companies reduce their cloud costs by stopping non-production resources when they’re not needed. The problem: Almost every company on the cloud struggles with cost management. While optimizing production costs can be complex, reducing non-production costs should be a straightforward case of shutting down resources when they’re not in use. However, most companies lack an elegant solution for this. The solution: CloudPal - A downtime scheduler for non-production…

We've all been there: You find an unused NAT Gateway costing $45/mo. You delete it in the AWS console to stop the billing immediately. But the next time you run terraform plan, it fails because of state drift. Now you have to manually run terraform state rm or import it back to fix the drift. It's tedious, so often we just leave the waste running. I built CloudSlash to automate the cleanup and the state surgery. It’s written in Go (using BubbleTea for the TUI) and solves two engineering problems: 1. Finding "hollow" resources (the graph). Most cost tools just check CloudWatch metrics…
