When server instances sit idle, the cost is obvious—but often the underlying cause is inefficient code or architecture pushing capacity to compensate. From embedded systems to mobile and cloud back-ends I’ve witnessed this pattern repeatedly.
A digital-insurance provider achieved a 28% reduction in cloud spending within 60 days by tagging resources, eliminating unused assets and instituting governance.
In my CMS and content-management projects I introduced profiling, trimmed database queries and optimized thread usage, reducing load peaks so that fewer servers were required.
Audit code and architecture and cloud resources. Fix code inefficiencies first, then align infrastructure accordingly.
