Case Study: Market-Leading Data Loss Prevention Firm achieves 45% AWS resource usage efficiency improvement with Virtana Platform

Market-leading Data Loss Prevention Firm increases AWS resource usage efficiency by 45%

Market-Leading Data Loss Prevention Firm is a no‑compromise data protection company delivering a SaaS DLP platform and Analytics & Reporting Cloud on AWS to 700+ enterprise customers. Faced with global, multi‑region AWS deployments and a mix of native AWS tools, tagging, third‑party and in‑house solutions, the firm lacked a simple, complete view of resource usage and struggled to balance performance, availability and cost. They engaged Virtana and its Virtana Platform to address this visibility and efficiency challenge.

Virtana implemented the Virtana Platform to provide instant, daily visibility and executive‑ready views of AWS consumption, revealing overprovisioned resources (for example, oversized Microsoft SQL Server instances) and enabling rightsizing. As a result, Virtana helped the firm increase AWS resource usage efficiency by 45% even as EC2 instances grew from 650 to 800, reducing resource consumption and per‑CPU SQL licensing costs while improving transparency and cost control.
