In the age of the COVID-19 pandemic, the rush to the cloud is like nothing we’ve ever seen before. Chief technology officers, and even CEOs, are evangelizing on the benefits of the cloud, ranging from accessibility, scalability, flexibility, efficiency, cost, speed, time to insight and more.

But what they probably aren’t foreseeing is that the cloud can be expensive, wasteful and slow. At lease that’s what Flexera found in its State of the Cloud report. After polling 750 cloud decision makers they discovered that:

  • Organizations are over budget for cloud spend by an average of 23 percent and expect cloud spend to increase by 47 percent next year.
  • Respondents estimate organizations waste 30 percent of cloud spend
  • Organizations lack the time and talent to optimize cloud spend and speed

Dremio, the data lake engine provider, solves these, and other problems for its customers, proactively, in its Dremio AWS edition. It features elastic engines and parallel projects technologies to deliver deep automation, resource efficiency and elastic scale enhancements. In other words, they went beyond optimizing Dremio for AWS by introducing two new technologies to support on-demand data insights and reduce cloud infrastructure costs.
