Cloud Optimization & Modernization

Assess Technologies modernizes cloud infrastructure and cuts cloud spend. Drawing on a track record of reducing one platform’s infrastructure costs by 75% (Rackspace to AWS) and a further 66% through right-sizing and auto-scaling, we audit your cloud environment, eliminate waste, and improve reliability, security, and performance — without the lock-in of a vendor selling you more capacity.

How we cut costs and modernize

  • Cloud cost audit — find and eliminate waste: idle resources, over-provisioning, and forgotten services.
  • Right-sizing & auto-scaling — pay for what you actually use, scaled to real demand.
  • Architecture modernization — move toward containers, serverless, and managed services where they save money and effort.
  • Reliability & security — high-availability design, backups, and sensible access controls.
  • Migration planning — a clear, low-risk path from legacy or on-prem to the cloud.

Real, quantified results

This isn’t theory. As CTO of a growing SaaS platform, Jeremy Pope cut infrastructure costs 75% by migrating from Rackspace to AWS, then reduced AWS spend a further 66% by adopting modern, auto-scaling, right-sized services — all while scaling the platform to over 12.5 million annual sessions at 99.999% uptime.

Frequently asked questions

How can I reduce my AWS bill?

The fastest wins usually come from eliminating idle and over-provisioned resources, right-sizing instances, using auto-scaling, and adopting managed or serverless services for spiky workloads. A cloud cost audit identifies exactly where your money is going and which changes deliver the biggest savings first.

Will optimizing for cost hurt performance or reliability?

Done well, no — the opposite. Right-sizing and modern auto-scaling architectures typically improve both reliability and performance while lowering cost, because resources match real demand. We design for high availability first, then optimize spend within that.

Do you only work with AWS?

AWS is our deepest area of expertise, but the principles — eliminate waste, right-size, automate, and design for reliability — apply across cloud providers. We focus on what’s right for your environment and budget.
