About the Client
Berkshire Hathaway had clear visibility into cloud spend, yet avoidable costs continued across its environment. Unused resources, stale snapshots, and suboptimal commitment coverage reduced efficiency and limited value from existing cloud investments. The organization needed stronger cost discipline, clearer prioritization, and a consistent way to focus optimization efforts on the opportunities delivering the greatest financial impact across the cloud estate.
About the Project
The challenge was converting existing spend visibility into sustained savings. Teams needed to distinguish high-value opportunities from lower-impact issues, prioritize corrective actions, and verify whether implemented changes produced measurable results. CloudVerse provided a structured approach for moving from cost insight to action while maintaining clear tracking of savings outcomes over time. This created greater accountability across teams responsible for cloud economics.
Solutions Implemented
CloudVerse surfaced the highest-impact waste drivers and converted them into a tracked action plan. Teams could implement targeted fixes, validate outcomes, and measure savings from implemented changes across commitments and Azure services.
Waste Driver Analysis
Surfaced unused resources, stale snapshots, and suboptimal commitment coverage as the highest-impact drivers of avoidable cloud spend.
Action Prioritization
Converted identified waste drivers into a tracked action plan so teams could implement fixes and validate outcomes.
Savings Plan
Tracked a Data-Prod Savings Plan delivering $40,000 in recurring monthly savings after implementation.
Azure RI Savings
Tracked combined Azure Reserved Instance actions delivering $14,962 in recurring monthly savings after implementation.
App Service Savings
Tracked Azure App Services optimization delivering $4,000 in additional recurring monthly savings after implementation.
Outcome
Turning Cloud Waste Into Over $738K in Annualized Tracked Savings
Realized $61,581.97 in actual monthly savings from optimization actions implemented across the existing cloud environment.
Identified $101,736.35 in potential monthly savings by surfacing unused resources, stale snapshots, and commitment coverage gaps.
Tracked $738,983.64 in annualized savings impact after prioritized cloud optimization actions were implemented and validated.
Captured $40,000 monthly through Data-Prod Savings Plans, plus additional savings from Azure RIs and App Services.
“Successive Digital gave our teams a practical way to connect cloud spend with financial decisions. Their structured approach helped us move beyond fragmented reporting, focus on the highest-impact savings opportunities, and track results after implementation. We can now identify cost drivers more quickly, understand where savings are being realized, and make optimization decisions with greater accountability. This gives our teams a consistent foundation for managing cloud economics with clarity and confidence.”
