This early-stage customer has not purchased any commitments (Reserved Instances and Savings Plans).<\/p>\n<p>If this is you, don\u2019t fret. You\u2019re not alone and this is not uncommon.<\/p>\n<p>Companies remaining in the early stage phase are doing so due to:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Awareness \u2013 Most customers in this stage are not fully aware of cloud cost optimization.<\/li>\n<li>Lack of focus and priority \u2013 engineering teams are dedicating their efforts to developing and implementing new technologies.<\/li>\n<li>Risk \u2013 The main culprit.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Companies shy away from leveraging commitments because they cannot determine their cloud architectural landscape (e.g. which instance types and regions will be used) 1-3 years in advance nor can they confidently forecast their compute usage. With this uncertainty in place, they opt to run 100% on-demand, the highest pricing plan for EC2.<\/p>\n<p>With Renovisor from Renova Cloud, customers at this stage go from 0% infrastructure covered by savings to 95%-99% coverage. Within 1-2 weeks of activation, customers see over 45% savings off their EC2 costs.<\/p>\n<p>This is an example of a customer who onboarded Renovisor 4 weeks ago.
