Problem
The specific problems were financial and structural:
01 Cloud spend exceeding $43K per month with no cost governance in place
02 Inefficient resource allocation across 55+ EC2 instances
03 No Reserved Instances or Savings Plans applied to predictable workloads
04 Static, always-on architecture with no demand-based scaling
05 Gaps in cloud security posture and workload-level protection
Leadership needed to bring costs under control without disrupting the platform, and to build an infrastructure that could support future growth without future cost explosions.
