Bitcorp saves 40% on their cloud spend

BIT (Bringin Inti Teknologi) is one of the leading IT services, solutions and software providers in Indonesia. One of the fastest growing and key solutions offered is the Digital Platforms & Marketplaces, fully cloud based. 

Andhika Gannesha, EVP of Digital Platform Solutions and Services, who leads a large team of developers, architects and engineers to develop and deliver digital platform solutions; is ultimately responsible for profitable business growth.  

As with any business leader using cloud, Andhika was facing an ever-increasing cloud bill. Managing cloud spend and keeping it in line with the business objectives and returns has been one of the key focuses and challenges.

Particularly, the team found it challenging to manage their cloud spend efficiently. There was no clear solution around Spend Allocation, Spend Monitoring and Spend Optimization.  

Working with CloudVerse Multicloud FinOps Platform and Consulting Services, BIT solved all of these challenges within weeks, resulting in over 40% savings on their monthly cloud bill.

BIT pain points:

‍

1. Lack of spend visibility across various projects, environments, teams and customers  
2. Inefficient Asset Management; with very low level of tagging compliance  
3. Lack of budget and spend forecasting management  
4. Need for spend monitoring and alerting for any anomalies 
5. Increasing cloud spend without a robust optimization mechanism and plan

CloudVerse worked with BIT to establish FinOps Practice with the multicloud platform as well as the consulting services; for cost allocation, monitoring, and optimization; resulting into 40% savings on the monthly cloud spend. 

This has freed up the capital and more importantly the talent to focus on building the planned 5+ more marketplaces, helping the customers and driving growth. 

“CloudVerse gives us more than just a dedicated platform for cloud financial operations. It also enables us towards a cost-conscious cultural shift that allows my engineers to gradually understand that cost implications are part of the development process, too,” said Andhika.
