SSI Sees 12% Reduction in Monthly Cloud Spend with Virtana Optimize


SAN JOSE, Calif., Oct. 6, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Virtana, the AIOps observability company for hybrid cloud, brings cloud usage efficiencies to agribusiness software company, Software Solutions Integrated (SSI). Using Virtana Optimize, SSI was able to take control of their AWS costs by rightsizing instances, eliminating idle resources, and improving planning. These three actions alone resulted in a ~12% reduction in monthly spend. 

"While a 12% savings may not sound huge," said Darin Russell, IS Team Lead at SSI, "this is a big impact considering it represents only a small subset of total actions we are able to take thanks to Virtana Optimize."

Their Agvance software enables agriculture retailers to integrate business process functions from every facet of their operations. From diversified cooperatives to national retailers, SSI has a proven process and track record for successful software implementations.

SSI's Agvance IT team is using the Virtana Optimize module of Virtana Platform to understand their AWS spend. This includes seeing where costs are coming from and identifying opportunities to reduce those costs across multiple areas of business. With ongoing development, as well as evolving business initiatives, it is a constantly changing environment that is difficult to keep continuously optimized without the precision, high-definition observability Virtana provides.
