Case Study: Barstool Sports cuts cloud costs by 50% with Vantage

Barstool Sports saves 50% and centralizes costs from Multiple Providers in Vantage

Barstool Sports, an American digital media company, needed better visibility and control over the growing costs of its AWS and third-party services as it expanded across web, apps, video, podcasts, and other platforms. Managing multiple providers made it difficult to attribute spend accurately and risked costly overruns, so the company turned to Vantage for cloud cost management and monitoring.

With Vantage, Barstool Sports gained a single pane of glass across AWS, GCP, Fastly, Datadog, Snowflake, and MongoDB Atlas, plus resource-level cost visibility and anomaly detection. The team used Vantage to spot and fix issues like unnecessary cross-region data transfer, runaway Datadog charges, and expensive Snowflake queries, and Vantage helped Barstool Sports cut its total AWS bill by over 50% while saving countless engineering hours.
