Easy implementation and great savings

  • March 03, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Spot Ocean's big difference for us was the excellent integration with the provisioning tool we used: kops. This made it very easy to configure a new node groups on existing clusters using Spot Ocean. It also made it easier to maintain our infrastructure as code.
What do you dislike about the product?
Even though we integrate kops, sometimes it doesn't work well in new kops versions. This is expected because the integration development is slower than the development of kops.

For us, this is not a critical issue as we are already used to installing earlier versions of kops compared to the final release.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The cost reduction and operational excellence, as this spot instances management is done transparently and efficiently by Spot Ocean.

In the first few months after implementation, we got a cost reduction of over 60% with AWS EC2.

What do you like best about the product?
Reducing compute costs by 80%+ is the most obvious thing to like about Spot Ocean. However in addition to that they are a great partner, provide excellent service, domain expertise on compute environments, and are generally excellent to work with.
What do you dislike about the product?
On Spot Ocean literally nothing. I would like to see better reporting on their Eco side, and I'm excited to see what they do with their Cloud Checkr acquisition and how well that fits into the broader console, but I honestly have not once considered moving away from Spot Ocean in the past 5 years of usage.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our primary use case is running 100% of our container compute on AWS spot instances. We are saving over $10M a year from this alone, with zero performance degradation, resiliency degradation, etc.

What do you like best about the product?
Ocean took the spot instances management out of the picture and allow engineers to adopt EKS running spot instances
What do you dislike about the product?
should include instance family in spot instances selection instead of specify each instance type
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Cost optimization. Ocean was able to reduce our EC2 compute cost
