In cloud-based applications, infrastructure costs significantly depend on how intensively your application uses system resources.
Inefficient code is usually one of the main reasons for excessive resource consumption which drains your funds.
By conducting performance testing with PFLB, you can optimize your code, reduce redundancies, and maximize your ROI.
Cloud cost optimization
Optimize cloud costs with performance testing
The numbers tell a story of their own
As global companies increasingly leverage cloud resources, the associated costs are on the rise. Unfortunately, a significant portion of these expenses results from overspending on cloud infrastructure due to inadequate optimization strategies.
$600 bln
According to Gartner’s report, business cloud costs are expected to exceed $600 billion in 2023.
$12 mln
For larger companies, 31% of enterprises spent more than $12 million on public cloud services each year.
$1.2 mln
In 2022, more than half (53%) of small and medium-sized businesses spent over $1.2 million annually on cloud services, accounting for nearly half of their entire technology budget.
70%
Research shows that companies who fail to optimize their cloud costs may overspend up to 70%.
Developers may not have a clear understanding of the costs associated with their applications in the cloud, while those in charge of funding may struggle to assess and influence the results.
PFLB can provide clear insight to both developers and decision-makers.
