Objectives

  • Establish unified visibility across all AWS accounts.
  • Identify and eliminate underutilized or idle resources.
  • Standardize usage and optimization frameworks across teams
  • Reduce monthly cloud spend through structured rightsizing.
  • Enhance operational efficiency with automated analytics.

Overview

A large enterprise operating multiple AWS accounts—with a combined cloud spend of $1.8M per month—wanted to reduce operational expenses. Although the company used   Reserved Instances and Savings Plans, significant cost inefficiencies persisted across underutilized and overprovisioned resources. 

Challenges

  •  Limited product-level cost visibility
  • Difficulty identifying underutilized compute
  •  Significant EKS overprovisioning
  • Lack of unified optimization framework
  • Inability to quantify savings

Key Actions

  • Rightsizing compute
  •  ASG reconfiguration
  •  EKS optimization
  •  Storage lifecycle improvements
  •  Removal of idle resources 

Use Case

The enterprise used tagging for cost allocation but lacked unified utilization analytics. MoreYeahs provided structured cost optimization across compute, storage, and EKS capacity. 

Results

  • Unused Resources: $18,000 / month
  •  Overprovisioned EKS Resources: $800,000 / month
  •  Storage Optimization: $5,000 / month
  •  Total Monthly Savings: $823,000 (~45%) 

Impact

Savings of $823k/month and nearly $10M annually with a repeatable optimization framework. 

Conclusion

MoreYeahs enabled sustainable, high-impact AWS cost optimization through structured analysis and rightsizing.
