The FinOps operating model is all about ensuring organizational collaboration around controlling cloud costs and ensuring business alignment.
Densify uniquely enables cloud cost optimization starting with ensuring an organization is applying the right resources at the workload level, then optimizing purchasing strategies.
Talk to us before that next reserved instance or savings plan commitment.
Our deep analysis of historical workload patterns and personalities always ensures your workloads get the resources they need without too much.
Rightsize cloud instances to mitigate risks and problems:
Densify provides full historical utilization and coverage data across AWS Savings Plans and consumption commitments like Reserved Instances (RIs) and committed use discounts.
Densify provides optimal usage strategy recommendations for AWS Savings Plans across Amazon EC2 and Fargate. Analytics output can be broken down by instance type and specific AWS account for easier allocation. Filters allow for focus on specific regions, tags, or accounts and includes historical coverage.
Densify actively and constantly manages your Reserved Instances portfolio to ensure you purchase and maintain the right combinations of Standard and Convertible RIs. Ensure you aren’t leaving money on the table with the right mix of Convertible Reserved Instances, and automate guided RI exchanges through AWS’s APIs so they are fast and true-up fees are minimal.
Densify’s outlier analysis quickly identifies anomalies in cloud spending patterns. Outliers can be visualized against historical spending patterns with drilldown into transaction-level details to determine the root cause of anomalous spend. Configure outlier notifications and reports for maximum control over what defines an anomalous pattern. Once you configure a report you like, you can save it for repeated use.

Each time Densify machine learning generates an optimization directive, an accompanying Impact Analysis and Recommendations Report is created specifically for application stakeholders and your Change Advisory Board. This report includes hard facts, analysis, and projections for effort level and impact that justify each recommendation.
Reports can be distributed automatically in a variety of ways, including by attachment to ITSM change tickets and through communication and business collaboration environments like Slack and Teams.
