Case Study: a major U.S.-based mortgage lender cuts AWS costs by 50% with V2Solutions

Major U.S.-based Mortgage Lender cuts AWS RDS costs by 50% with V2Solutions

The customer, a major U.S.-based mortgage lender, faced rising AWS costs due to an overprovisioned and static development environment that lacked autoscaling. Their challenge involved significant underutilization of RDS, EC2, and EBS services, along with limited visibility and governance. V2Solutions partnered with them to address this cloud cost optimization challenge.

V2Solutions implemented a multi-phase strategy that included right-sizing architecture, migrating to burstable RDS instances, and deploying ECS autoscaling with intelligent scheduling. This solution delivered a 50% reduction in RDS service costs, 29% savings from Reserved Instances, and an 80% reduction in idle time, achieving significant cost savings and improved operational efficiency for the client.
