Simplifying GPU Workloads On-Prem? Here's What Actually Worked for Me

Oct 26, 2025 By Evgeny Lukashov In 2bcloud
Let’s be honest. A lot of AWS customers are still running on-prem GPU servers. Sometimes it’s for internal model training jobs, sometimes it’s cost-sensitive work that doesn’t need cloud-scale reliability. The pattern is common, especially in R&D-heavy environments. The usual go-to is virtualization platforms. But those add complexity and licensing overhead most teams would love to ditch. So, I went looking for something cleaner.

EKS Pricing And Cost Optimization (2025 Guide)

Oct 24, 2025 By CloudZero In CloudZero
AWS did not intend to build Amazon EKS; it simply had to. Kubernetes adoption beamed light years ahead of AWS’s own managed container orchestration service. This forced AWS to develop a managed service to accommodate customers who wanted to use upstream Kubernetes but did not want to manage it themselves. As soon as AWS got around to it, it knocked the Kubernetes-based container management service out of the park. Not only is Amazon EKS simpler than Kubernetes, but EKS pricing may also be worth it.

The impact of the AWS outage has reminded many businesses of the risk for businesses that rely heavily on centralised cloud infrastructure, especially when so many essential services are concentrated in a single region. But at the wider industry level, this is also a warning around the widespread lack of contingency planning for cloud failures. Reactive response must give way to strategically planned disaster recovery protocols that engender a resilient cloud market.

Cultural ROI In FinOps: People Drive Pivots

Oct 23, 2025 By Thalia Elie In CloudZero
When I ask clients to picture cloud cost optimization, they think dashboards, policies, maybe a clever right-sizing purchase. What they don’t picture? Meetings. Misunderstandings. Mistrust. To avoid FinOps failures, we need a new starting line; one that gets to the root of spend misalignment.

From Code To Clicks: A Visual Way To Build Dimensions In CloudZero

Oct 23, 2025 By David Aponovich In CloudZero
In early October, we launched Dimension Studio, a new visual editor for engineers and others that brings point-and-click simplicity to the same powerful, precise allocation engine CloudZero is known for. Before that, when CloudZero users built cloud cost allocations, they got it from our YAML-based CostFormation engine, a code-driven way to describe how cloud and AI costs roll up to products, customers, or teams.
