Case Study: TuneIn cuts AWS costs and gains Kubernetes visibility with Flexera

TuneIn cuts AWS costs by 25% with Flexera

TuneIn, an audio streaming service with 75 million monthly users, faced rising AWS costs and a lack of visibility into cloud spending after migrating from their own data centers. Their Kubernetes-based infrastructure made it difficult to commit to cost-saving Reserved Instances, and engineering teams struggled to track and govern their growing expenses without a dedicated FinOps team.

Flexera provided a solution using its Ocean and Cloud Commitment Management products. This allowed TuneIn to safely leverage Spot instances for Kubernetes workloads and efficiently manage Reserved Instances. As a result, TuneIn achieved a 25% savings on their AWS bill with Ocean and over 40% savings with RIs, while also gaining crucial unit cost visibility and maintaining high availability for their critical services.
