    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…

    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…

    Hello, Stacktape CEO here. As a full-stack developer, I was looking for an easy way to deploy and host my applications for years. I could go with Kubernetes and Terraform. But the complexity of running this in production can be overwhelming even for a team of dedicated DevOps specialists. Or I could go with Heroku. But I’m not willing to pay 5-10 times more for my infrastructure just because my app was easier to deploy. I could also choose Serverless framework. But If my use case requires more than Lambda functions, I need to read through 100s of pages of AWS documentation figuring out how…

    Reduce your cloud costs - SREs/DevOps/Cloud Engineers Hi community! We are Kaytu (“Kay-two,” named after the K2 mountain), and we've developed an open-source tool for engineering, DevOps, and SRE teams to reduce cloud costs. Cloud inflation (“cloud-flation”) is real—AWS EC2 costs are up 23% (4-5x global inflation average [1]), and 30% of the capacity that is paid for is simply wasted ([2]). The best way to improve cloud utilization is by simplifying the process so engineers can spot inefficiencies and suggest changes. We built a simple open-source CLI tool that recommends a…

Provision accounts and their infrastructure with a single command, `telophase deploy`. 3. Deploy to a subset of accounts…
