Understand cloud costs before deciding what to change.

Fidalgo connects resource consumption, application behavior and business priorities. The aim is to explain spending and assess changes alongside their effects on capacity, reliability and maintenance.

Discuss cloud costs

Who it is for

For companies with cloud environments, especially AWS, that need to explain bills, identify spending owners and decide which adjustments make sense.

Problems we address

Bills grow without costs being linked to applications, environments or owners.
Idle resources or unsuitable capacity are difficult to identify safely.
Cost reduction decisions overlook performance, availability or consumption commitments.

Possible deliverables

Consumption map

Review of billing and usage, breakdown by service and environment, and assessment of resource identification. Documentation of limitations in the available data.

Prioritized adjustments

Analysis of idle resources, sizing and configuration alternatives. Each recommendation considers risk, effort, operational impact and how to check the result.

Ongoing review routine

Organization of indicators, budgets and alerts where applicable. Definition of owners and a routine for reviewing consumption changes.

Compare prices before planning your server.

Our free comparator brings together VPS and cloud plans by CPU, memory, region and currency. Check reference prices and inclusions as a starting point for assessing your infrastructure.

How to start

Bring available cost history, your most important applications and operational constraints. Analysis starts with appropriate access to billing and usage data, without assuming immediate changes to the environment.

From context to operations

Establish a baseline
Record the period, usage, costs and data limitations to compare scenarios consistently.
Connect costs and usage
Map resources to applications and owners, considering load variations and capacity needs.
Prioritize and validate
Agree on recommendations, approvals and changes. Check costs and application behavior after authorized adjustments.
Organize continuity
Document decisions and establish owners, indicators and a schedule for reviewing spending.

Scope and limits

Analysis depends on historical data and resource visibility. No savings percentage is guaranteed. Cloud consumption and professional fees are separate; long-term commitments, resource deletion and capacity changes require assessment and approval by the responsible parties.

Questions about working together

Is a minimum saving guaranteed?

No. Potential depends on usage, prices, contracts and environment constraints. Recommendations must also account for performance and reliability.

Does the analysis include changing resources or purchasing reservations?

The assessment may recommend these actions, but analysis and execution need defined scopes. No consumption commitment or destructive change is assumed without approval.

Can we start without assigning every resource to an owner?

Yes. Identification can be part of the initial work. Analysis accuracy is limited by available data and improves as resources and costs are organized.

Tell us how spending is monitored today and which decision is pending. We can use that context to organize an assessment and its priorities.
