Cloud Application Deployment – Independent Cost Analysis

Whenever you have an application in the cloud and the hosting bills are causing some pain, it is time to ask questions like:

• Are you paying too much for the software you have in the cloud?
• Is your database server installed on the wrong machine class of an Amazon EC2 instance?
• Is poor database design causing you to deploy to a server with too many CPU cores, which translates into increased SQL Server or Oracle licensing fees?  How about a flawed database design that requires a boatload of RAM?
• Does your application client have a memory leak or does the application only use a single CPU thread when it should run things in parallel?
• Are the portions of the application that can be refactored as serverless code?

These questions can be particularly poignant when it comes to legacy applications!  Contact us to see if we can help assess the application workload and to spec out cloud resources that closely match the workload’s resource needs.
