Description

Infrastructure Overview

CMZ evaluates your current infrastructure by utilizing the data collected as per the set duration

Approach

CMZ analyzes your workload and projects that as an AWS environment. The platform provides workload mapping to AWS across a number of pricing plans. Below are a set of these plans created from the data-set collected

➜ Hardware Mapping

➜ Workload Mapping

➜ Pricing Plans

Designs

➜ Hardware, On Demand
Hardware, On Demand refers to paying for physical server resources (like CPU, RAM, storage) only when you use them, typically on an hourly or per second basis. There's no long-term commitment, offering maximum flexibility to scale resources up or down as needed. Think of it like renting a car for just the hours you drive.

➜ Workload, On Demand

Workload, On Demand is similar to hardware on demand but focuses on the actual compute or application usage rather than raw hardware. You pay for the resources based on your workload consumes as it runs, without any upfront commitment or long-term contracts. It's ideal for unpredictable or fluctuating workloads.

➜ Workload, All Upfront 3-yr
Workload, All Upfront 3-yr signifies a commitment to use a specific amount of resources for a three-year period, with the entire cost paid upfront at the beginning of the term. This model offers the deepest discounts compared to on-demand pricing because the provider gets a guaranteed payment and usage commitment. It's best for stable, predictable workloads where you're confident about your long-term resource needs.

➜ Workload, Cost Optimized 3-yr

Workload, Cost Optimized 3-yr also involves a three-year commitment for a workload, but the payment structure is designed to be more flexible than "all upfront" while still offering significant savings over on-demand. This typically means you pay a portion of the cost upfront (a partial upfront payment) and then a reduced hourly or monthly rate for the remaining duration of the three years. It's a balance between commitment and flexibility, often chosen for predictable workloads where you want better savings without tying up all capital immediately

Total Cost of Ownership Overview

AWS offers on-demand pricing as well as advance reservations that require initial cash outlays, but can generate substantial savings over the life of the contract.

The analysis includes hardware and workload mappings for on-demand pricing plans, and optimal pricing scenarios. To determine your optimal mapping, CMZ looks at three categories of workload optimization: Compute, Storage, and Network.
