Atrium

A long-established leading specialist insurance and reinsurance business, Atrium lacked visibility into their Amazon EC2 Reserved Instances (RI) usage and coverage. This was further amplified by the need to maximize utilization and reduce overall cloud spend. By partnering with Densify, Atrium was able to create a process to help convert the existing RIs into an optimal set of RIs that precisely matched workload demands. As a result, Atrium’s RI investment increased from 75% to 95% in 5 months, reducing overall cost of infrastructure.
