Cloud Cost Optimization - targeted cost control
Strategically optimize cloud spending, ensure financial transparency, and sustainably relieve IT budgets – delivering the measurable value of effective cloud cost optimization.
Efficiency in the cloud begins with effective cost management.
Cloud platforms such as AWS or Azure Cloud offer enormous flexibility – but also the risk of cost explosions due to a lack of transparency, shadow IT or inefficient utilisation. This is precisely where our Cloud Cost Optimization Services come in: We create clarity about your expenditure, establish control mechanisms and automatically realise potential savings – without compromising the performance of your workloads.
Our services are technology-neutral and ideal for companies with multi-cloud strategies. Private and hybrid cloud environments can also be seamlessly integrated and controlled.
Technology that makes cloud costs controllable
- Cloud-native APIs for cost recording (e.g. AWS, Azure)
- Forecasting and budget planning based on historical usage data
- Tagging audits with policy enforcement (Azure Policy, AWS Config, OPA)
- Automated rightsizing and scheduling based on utilization
- Budget alerts and escalations for cost spikes
- Project-specific cost reporting via tags or subscriptions
- Integration with monitoring and reporting tools for cost analysis
- Dashboards for multi-cloud costs, KPIs, and forecasts
- Governance policies as code (Terraform, Bicep, CloudFormation)
What are the specific benefits?
Full control, targeted management, sustainable cost optimisation.
How we support you.
We provide Cloud Cost Optimization services for enterprises aiming to control, increase transparency, and sustainably reduce their cloud expenses – across all platforms, projects, and teams.
Our services are designed for IT and finance leaders who need to analyze and optimize cloud costs, plan budgets proactively, and embed cloud governance strategically. Whether public, private, or hybrid cloud – we establish the foundation for transparent cost structures, automated savings potential, and auditable cloud cost management. By applying FinOps principles, cross-platform dashboards, and precise forecasting, we enable lasting control over resources, expenditures, and cost efficiency.
We analyze your expenses in a structured way by services, regions, or departments – leveraging cloud-native APIs, tags, and granular usage data. This forms the foundation for cloud cost optimization, budgeting, and controllable cost center allocation in dynamic multi-cloud environments.
We integrate forecasting models and role-based budget control into your cloud platforms – with automated alerts for threshold breaches and proactive cost projections. This creates a reliable early warning system for the financial management of your cloud budgets.
We establish FinOps frameworks for IT, finance, and controlling – complemented by governance policies for tagging, reserved instances, on-demand usage, and resource discipline. This ensures clear accountability and controlled cloud spending throughout the entire lifecycle.
Through automated rightsizing, intelligent scheduling rules, and workload optimization, we lower ongoing cloud expenses. Governance policies as code ensure that your cloud cost optimization remains consistent, automated, and fully auditable.
We develop custom dashboards with KPI-based reporting, forecasts, and cost trends – covering all cloud providers. Your stakeholders gain clear insights into usage, expenditures, and savings potential – a central control element of your cloud cost optimization.

Still have questions?
Cloud Cost Optimization refers to the systematic analysis and control of cloud expenses – with the goal of using resources efficiently, managing budgets transparently, and avoiding unnecessary costs. It is essential for enterprises that want to operate cloud services economically while combining scalability with cost control. By applying FinOps principles, automated rightsizing, and transparent cost models, the cloud becomes predictable and financially manageable.
By using cloud-native tools (e.g., AWS Cost Explorer, Azure Advisor), resources can be analyzed based on utilization, runtime, and cost contribution. Automated reports and dashboards reveal overprovisioning, idle times, or redundant instances. A consistent tagging strategy and integration into KPI-focused cloud cost reporting are key prerequisites.
FinOps combines technical optimization with financial governance. It aligns IT, finance, and controlling, ensuring greater transparency and accountability through clear roles, policies, and KPIs. FinOps processes enable forecasting, budget control, and the adoption of reserved instances or savings plans – all central components of sustainable cloud cost optimization.
Multi-cloud cost management requires cross-platform dashboards and consolidated billing models. With centralized tools, costs can be analyzed by project, team, or service – including forecasts, budget deviations, and alerts. Standardized tagging policies and governance mechanisms are essential to capture expenses in a structured and auditable way.
Key tools include:
AWS Cost Explorer, Azure Cost Management
Monitoring solutions such as Grafana, Datadog, or Prometheus
IaC-based governance (e.g., Terraform)
Proven methods include automated rightsizing, deprovisioning, policy-driven scaling, and the implementation of FinOps frameworks. This combination delivers transparency, automation, and financially controlled scalability.
