Cloud Cost Optimisation in Greater Noida

Capacity is compared against the peak and the baseline separately. A single annual average hides both.

Storage is reviewed by bucket and prefix. Admission documents, production records and logs have different retention needs, and a single rule usually keeps too much of something.

Test and staging resources are checked for an owner and a schedule. A staging copy that nobody uses is a recurring cost.

A ranked list with estimated monthly saving, effort and risk; a calendar-based sizing plan; and a retention recommendation for the document and log buckets.

Commitments are sized after the baseline is clear. A commitment that covers peak capacity all year is not a saving.

The review covers analysis and recommendations. Resizing, deletion, architecture work and ongoing FinOps are separate. Provider bills and licences stay outside the review.

We compare capacity with the peak and the baseline separately, then review storage by bucket and prefix. Admission documents, production records and logs have different retention needs, so one rule rarely fits all three.

Test and staging resources are checked for an owner and a schedule. A quiet-month copy of a busy system is often the easiest saving in the account.

A follow-up pass checks the following invoice and refreshes the list. The review stays short: a ranked list, a named owner and a date. It is reviewed with the department head, not filed away after the meeting.
