STOP THE SPRAWL
CoreStratus Cloud Cost Optimization Service
An Azure Cloud Cost Optimization and
Financial Governance Solution from Core BTS
Cloud sprawl is real. And painful.
The cloud made app development, data management, storage, and computing faster and easier, but now bills are coming due.
And they’re not pretty.
At Core BTS, we know it doesn’t have to be this way.
“Azure Cloud cost optimization isn’t just about cutting expenses; it’s the art of crafting a strategic roadmap to efficiency, where innovation and fiscal responsibility come together in perfect alignment for resource harmony. This journey goes beyond mere cost-cutting; it’s about sculpting an environment where every investment propels both your technology and your financial goals toward a prosperous and sustainable future.”
Joe Bellian
Sr. Director, Microsoft Alliances
All Gain. No Pain.
Here is the CoreStratus four step process from the team at Core BTS.
Start with your baseline.
We start with a baseline of your current environment and, within days, identify immediate waste. Together, we then establish your Azure Governance.
Establish once. Then automate, automate, automate.
Most organizations don’t have a strong Azure Governance in place. Or, if they do, teams aren’t following it. We help you set up organization-wide policies and then automate tagging so future compliance isn’t left to the whims and desires of the day.
Rack up the wins.
Once you have your baseline and governance in place, it becomes easy to spot the opportunities for savings and efficiency. This is where we really shine.
• Pull orphaned item list for review: Start with the lowest hanging, but often hidden, opportunities.
• Identify any misconfigurations: Downsize under-
utilized workloads.
• Advise on workload migrations: Get the right migration strategy for the right app. Not all apps are created equal.
Never look back.
Our approach focuses as much on tomorrow as it does on today. Once savings and strategies have been identified, we give you the right reports and strategies to maintain your spending in the future.
• Established Budgets: Find your realistic & expected Azure spend and set budget alerts to keep it true.
• Review deltas in spending: Create cost anomaly alerts and learn how to investigate/remediate
• Plan for future projects: Establish tagging strategy to create a cloud cost plan at the start of a project, not the end.
