Overview

Scaling smartly and limiting wastage: Cloud optimization for efficient adoption

Cloud optimization tools leverage AI/ML and data analytics to enable organizations to harness the power of their cloud environments while minimizing wastage. Organizations are rapidly moving their operations to the cloud to take advantage of its benefits, which include cost-effectiveness, scalability, flexibility, speed, and agility. However, cloud adoption has introduced operational challenges such as cost overruns, resource under-utilization, multi-cloud architecture, varying pricing and resource types, configuration rules, industry regulations, and security threats. Cloud optimization tools help organizations overcome these challenges by fine-tuning resource allocation, optimizing workload distribution, and navigating multi-cloud deployments.

Key complications of cloud adoption

Cloud optimization encompasses a broad range of solutions to enhance the efficiency, performance, security, and cost-effectiveness of cloud-based resources and services. This industry hub focuses on tools that provide cost optimization, cloud automation, and security and compliance management. 
There are also three main sources of cloud optimization tools: 1) cloud provider software (such as AWS Cost Explorer, Amazon Cloud Formation, Azure Automation, and Azure Cost Management), 2) custom in-house solutions, and 3) third-party tools. Cloud provider tools are easy to access and cost less but are limited to platform-specific optimizations, while in-house solutions are developed to address company-specific issues but require additional time and capital. The focus of the hub would be third-party tools that cover multi-cloud workload management (i.e., tools that manage and optimize services from multiple cloud service providers).
