Case Study: Dufry reduces AWS costs by 66% with Cloudreach Cost Reliability

Cloudreach Helped Dufry Reduce Their Aws Bill by 66% With Cost Visibility and Optimization

Dufry, a Swiss-based global travel retailer, was challenged by a lack of cost visibility within its AWS environment following a period of rapid growth and acquisitions. The company needed a partner to implement a cost calculation process, provide detailed reporting, and offer optimization recommendations. They engaged Cloudreach and its Infrastructure Reliability managed service, which includes Cost Reliability.

Cloudreach defined tagging policies to structure the AWS environment and identify waste. Through its managed service, Cloudreach provides monthly reports and ongoing recommendations. This process quickly identified a misconfigured Lambda function that was causing a significant, unexpected cost spike, which was then rectified. In one specific outcome, Cloudreach helped Dufry reduce its AWS EBS storage costs by 66%, from over $10,000 to $3,500 monthly. Cloudreach continues to manage and optimize Dufry's cloud infrastructure.
