Sunshower.io’s optimizing algorithms help you save time and money on the cloud. There’s no upfront cost, and our results are better than our competitors. It’s cloud computing optimization unlike anything else out there? So how do we do the thing?
Imagine you need to rent a storage unit — you have a bunch of boxes, but nowhere to put them. No problem! There are a ton of companies out there that will rent you a storage space. You do a quick search, and find over 30 self-storage companies scattered across town. You don’t have time to talk to everyone to compare prices (who does?), so you call a company whose name you recognize. You’re not exactly sure what size storage unit you need, so they talk you into renting a 10 x 20 unit, “just in case”, at which point you end up with a storage unit that looks like the photo above.
End result: you’re paying for a lot more than what you need. Sure, you could move to another facility, but who wants to negotiate with another company, then give up their whole day to move a truck and switch facilities? Easier to stay put, and keep that extra space.
Buying too much “just in case” is a very common things for companies on the cloud, too. Why?
- There are an overwhelming amount of cloud service provider choices
- There are an overwhelming number of options on each of those cloud service providers
- The UIs of cloud service providers are confusing
- It’s hard to know exactly what you need and what you’re using
That’s where Sunshower.io comes in
When you work with us, we securely run metadata about your resource usage through a proprietary algorithm designed to find the exact right fit for your cloud compute needs. We use machine learning to calculate millions of data points, factor in fluctuations in data usage over time, and come up with a cloud plan that ensures you aren’t overpaying “just in case.” We find you a fit so good, we can save our customers 40% or more on their monthly cloud compute bill.
(Think Cinderella’s glass slippers, with good arch support and just enough wiggle room for your toes.)
Over time, this kind of cloud savings can be game-changing. Just imagine the decisions you could make even with an extra 20% of your monthly cloud spend back in your pocket, like hiring another engineer, or launching a great social media campaign. And that’s what we’re all about at Sunshower.io: helping you focus on what matters — your business.
To that end, we’re excited to announce our just-launched AWS EC2 optimizer
If you’re currently using Amazon Web Services EC2 for your cloud infrastructure, our service (colloquially known as Anvil) has been specifically tailored to analyze your data and come up with a better cloud usage plan to help with AWS cost optimization. The bottom line: Our AWS cost optimization can help you save money on AWS with just a few clicks.
Not using AWS EC2? We promise you won’t be left out. We’re launching AWS RDS optimization next, and we’ll be releasing optimizations for more public clouds as we go along. (Google Cloud and Azure are next up on the list, but let us know your needs and we can re-prioritize!)
