With advanced auto-scaling for predictable performance, plus integrations with dozens of AWS services and tools, it just takes a few clicks to get started.
FinOps insights and management suite
Spot Eco: Provides full lifecycle management for Reserved Instances and Savings Plans. Eco maximizes RI utilization and automates the optimization of your reserved commitment portfolio by utilizing advanced exchanges and the RI Marketplace to maximize the ROI on the widest range of AWS services.
Billing Engine and Cost Intelligence: Billing Engine streamlines invoicing and delivers comprehensive billing reporting with intelligent cost allocation, including chargeback/showback, while Cost Intelligence delivers granular, actionable analytics on costs and resources across multi-cloud environments, as well as best practice check for cost, usage and utilization.
Monthly Fees Calculations:
Customer's monthly fee shall be calculated based on Customer's actual usage each month, as follows:
Elastigroup and Ocean:
For customer's use of AWS on-demand instances, reserved instances ("RIs") and savings plans ("SPs") and/or other cloud providers on-demand instances, RIs, SPS, reserved capacity ("RC") or committed usage discounts ("CUD"), the monthly fee equals to 1.415 US$ per 100 virtual central processing unit ("vCPU") hours; Plus
For customer's use of AWS spot instances and/or other cloud providers spot or preemptible virtual machines ("VMs), the monthly fee equals to 1.415 US$ per 100 vCPU hours.
Or
For customer's use of AWS spot instances and/or other cloud providers spot or preemptible VMs, the monthly fee equals to 0.28 US$ per 1 US$ Savings (as defined in the Documentation) realized by customer each month.
Eco:

Spot platform aligns all cross-organizational accounts from different CSP for cloud cost governance
We can map our cloud infrastructure footprint under a single dashboard & utlize its recommendations to evaluate potential savings.
It provides comprehensive governance control to identify unneded resource deployments and carry out its decomissioning activities in our cloud environments.
This is applicable to all service platforms that rely upon Cloud Service Provider (CSP), hence its not a major downside, looking at the overall cloud spend management.
By streamlining our workloads with Spot insights, we determine cost predictions & estimate resource expenditures based on historical data & changes in the anticipated workloads.
We can conveniently tag critical resources which handle our priority workload, so that it can be monitored & won't be accidentally interrupted by other deployments.
It offers single pane of glass visibility on various metrics such as cost prediction, resource utilization, and cost trends which greatly helps with our cloud cost analysis.
Since it supports cross-organizational accounts from different CSP, we can quickly build a centralized overview dashboard for resource reclamation, instance optimization and cloud cost governance stategies.
