Case Study: Oomnitza achieves 15% AWS cost savings with Virtana (CloudWisdom)

Oomnitza saves 15% on AWS with Virtana

Oomnitza, a San Francisco–based SaaS provider of IT asset management, faced rising AWS EC2 costs while needing to preserve performance for its customer-facing apps and backend MySQL/RabbitMQ services. After limited cost-control visibility from an open-source tool, Oomnitza adopted CloudWisdom by Virtana to get real-time alerts, EC2 sizing insights, and a clearer understanding of total EC2 spend.

By implementing CloudWisdom by Virtana and following its EC2 instance sizing recommendations, Oomnitza reduced total EC2 spending by about 15% while maintaining prior performance levels. Virtana’s cost-analysis and capacity-planning insights also helped Oomnitza align staffing and migration plans, improving operational efficiency without degrading the user experience.
