CloudZero: How We Used CloudZero To Find $1.7M Of Annualized Cloud Savings
With the goal of boosting our gross margin, we used CloudZero to find $1.7M of annualized savings — $1.5M of which came from engineering activities, not automated optimizations. On March 29 at 12:45 PM ET, hear our Vice President of Product and Engineering, Bill Buckley, discuss how we did it, and how you can, too.
Automated savings are a necessary piece of the optimization puzzle. But alone, they’re not the whole picture. Deeper, more durable savings come from engineering-led optimizations — the kinds of savings that would be invisible to automated platforms.
Join us Wednesday, March 29 at 1:00 PM ET as CloudZero’s Vice President of Product and Engineering, Bill Buckley, reviews the slew of savings opportunities CloudZero revealed in 2022. Altogether, it amounted to $1.7M — more than 88% of which came from engineers.

During the webinar, Bill will discuss:
- Business Context: The metrical motive behind CloudZero’s yearlong savings project
- Step-by-Step: How we sequenced the project: Business goal → Spend allocation → Unit optimization → Ongoing maintenance
- The Invisible Instance: Why most of the savings opportunities we uncovered would have been invisible to automated tools
- Results: How the savings projects improved CloudZero’s gross margin by 10%
