Cut Cloud Waste Without Cutting Capabilities

Right-size, renegotiate, and eliminate redundant services. Azure and AWS optimization that delivers real savings.

Azure AWS Cost Management
The Challenge

Cloud costs grow 30%+ year-over-year for most organizations. Without continuous optimization, you're paying for over-provisioned resources, orphaned services, and sub-optimal pricing tiers. The complexity of cloud pricing makes it nearly impossible to manage internally.

Cloud spending is the fastest-growing line item in most IT budgets — and the hardest to control. Enterprise organizations typically see 25-40% savings potential, government agencies 20-30%. UMS combines deep cloud architecture expertise with licensing and contract negotiation skills to deliver real reductions. Our methodical approach delivers 15-20% savings initially through quick wins, then 20-40% on deeper analysis — as demonstrated with NYC Housing Authority's Azure optimization.

What We Deliver

How we save you money

/01

Resource Right-Sizing

We analyze actual usage patterns to right-size VMs, databases, and storage — eliminating over-provisioning without impacting performance.

/02

Pricing Optimization

Maximize reserved instances, savings plans, spot instances, and hybrid benefit credits. Most organizations leave 20-30% on the table.

/03

Waste Elimination

Identify and remove orphaned resources, unused storage, idle compute, and redundant services that quietly inflate your bill.

/04

Contract Negotiation

We negotiate your cloud commitments (Enterprise Agreements, EDPs) with the same rigor we bring to on-premises software.

/05

VMware/Broadcom Migration Planning

With Broadcom's acquisition of VMware driving significant license cost increases, we help organizations evaluate migration paths — whether renegotiating under the new model or transitioning to alternatives like Nutanix, Hyper-V, or KVM.

FAQ

Common questions

Which cloud platforms do you support?

We have deep expertise in Azure and AWS, with growing capabilities in Google Cloud. Our optimization approach applies across all major platforms.

Will optimization affect our application performance?

No. We analyze actual usage patterns before making any changes. Right-sizing is based on real performance data, not arbitrary thresholds.

How much can we realistically save?

Most organizations save 20-40% on their cloud spend. The exact amount depends on your current optimization maturity, but we've never failed to find significant savings.
