Cloud Cost Optimization — cut your AWS & Azure bill without cutting performance.

Vriea runs a FinOps teardown of your cloud environment — right-sizing, commitment planning, and tagging — then builds a cost model and guardrails that keep spend aligned to value. Clients typically see 30–45% lower monthly spend.

The problem we solve

Your bill climbs faster than your usage.

Cloud bills grow because the cloud makes it trivially easy to provision and painful to remember to turn things off. Oversized instances, idle environments, and unattributed line items pile up quarter after quarter — and nobody can say which dollars map to value.

That waste is recoverable — and because it's recurring, every dollar you eliminate comes back month after month. Recovery compounds.

Industry context

How much cloud spend is wasted

  • Roughly 21% of enterprise cloud infrastructure spend — about $44.5 billion — is wasted on underutilized resources (Harness, FinOps in Focus).
  • 84% of organizations say managing cloud spend is their top cloud challenge, with budgets exceeded by 17% (Flexera, State of the Cloud Report).
  • The waste is recurring, not one-off — so every month it goes unaddressed, it costs you again.

What we do

A teardown that pays for itself.

FinOps teardown

Tag every resource, map cost-to-value, and surface idle and over-provisioned spend — so you know exactly where the money goes before we touch anything.

Right-sizing & autoscaling

Match capacity to real demand — not to what someone provisioned "to be safe" two years ago.

Commitment strategy

Savings Plans, Reserved Instances, and committed-use discounts modeled to your actual usage — not the vendor's upsell.

Cost model & guardrails

Budgets, alerts, and a tagging standard so the savings don't erode the quarter after we leave.

Architecture fixes

Storage tiering, data-transfer reduction, and right-tier compute — the structural changes that unlock the deeper savings.

Who it's for

Startups and mid-market teams on AWS or Azure whose bill has outgrown their understanding of it — or who are heading into a fundraise or board review and need spend under control.

Proof

43% lower cloud spend — with reliability up, not down.

See how we cut a mid-market SaaS platform's cloud spend 43% while improving reliability. Savings vary by environment — that's why the teardown quantifies your recoverable range before you commit to anything.

Common questions

Cloud cost optimization, answered straight.

How much can I save?

Most environments have 30–45% recoverable; we quantify yours in the teardown before you commit.

Will this hurt performance?

No — right-sizing removes waste, not capacity. We engineer to your reliability targets.

One-time or ongoing?

Both: a one-time teardown plus an optional FinOps retainer to hold the gains.

AWS, Azure, or both?

Both, including hybrid and multi-cloud.
