Pump

Pump is an AI-driven tool that helps businesses save significantly on their Amazon Web Services (AWS) bills with little effort on their part.

Pump leverages the power of AI to automatically optimize AWS bills, which means that engineers don’t have to spend their time figuring out how to cut costs. This tool is designed to help organizations save up to 60% on what they spend with AWS. It does this by offering group discounts and using smart algorithms that adjust AWS usage in real time to align it with commitments.

When it comes to security, Pump keeps things tight. It only requires minimal IAM permissions and operates purely at the billing level. This means your actual infrastructure remains untouched, ensuring that your operations stay secure while you enjoy savings.

Getting started with Pump is easy and comes at no cost upfront. There’s no obligation to continue unless you’re happy with the savings that Pump delivers. However, there is a requirement to commit to a partnership for a year to help manage risks. Pump makes its money by taking a small percentage from the discounts achieved through collective spending.

This handy tool supports a wide range of AWS services, including EC2, Sagemaker, RedShift, ECS, Lambda, EBS, ElasticCache, and OpenSearch. They’re also working on expanding support to include RDS, EC2 Data Transfer, and S3 in the near future.

With Pump, you can try out their service without any financial risk or additional workload on your engineering team. If you have any questions that aren’t addressed in the FAQ section on their website, you can always reach out to their support team for help.

Currently, Pump is focused solely on AWS, but they plan to branch out to support Google Cloud Platform (GCP) and Microsoft Azure in the future. So, it's a solution that’s set to grow alongside your business needs!
