Partnership: Save Your Cloud Costs with Usage AI and Qovery
Blog post from Qovery
Usage AI is a tool designed to help companies reduce their AWS cloud expenditures by efficiently managing Reserved Instances (RIs) with zero downtime and no need for code changes. By leveraging a Guaranteed Buyback Clause, Usage AI allows customers to achieve up to 57% savings on their AWS bills without committing to long-term AWS contracts. The tool operates by dynamically buying and selling RIs in response to a company's changing compute needs, ensuring optimal instance coverage while minimizing costs. This process is quick and straightforward, requiring only the setup of an IAM policy and role, and can be completed in under five minutes. Usage AI's effectiveness is demonstrated through case studies like FabFitFun, which reportedly saves $1 million annually. Offering a similar advantage to AWS Spot Instances, Usage AI focuses on RIs, providing consistent savings without the volatility of Spot prices. The service is available to any Qovery customer using AWS, and integration with Qovery’s platform aims to enhance the deployment of production-like environments while optimizing cloud spend.
