How Floranow simplified AWS cost optimization using MilkStraw AI
“It's no brainer savings.”
Floranow is a flower marketplace that operates across KSA and UAE. Flowers are extremely sensitive, and we need real-time inventory management and order processing to improve customer satisfaction through timely fulfillment. This requires reliable cloud infrastructure to ensure seamless operations.
All of this is powered by AWS, and as a fast-growing company, we need to always keep an eye on our cloud costs. When we heard about MilkStraw AI, we thought, "Let's give it a shot and try to save money."
The process was surprisingly smooth. After the first call with the team to understand the benefits, our DevOps team immediately integrated to see the potential savings. The results exceeded our expectations - an immediate 40% reduction in our AWS bill. There was nothing to discuss.
From that point, checking the dashboard became a daily routine to monitor our costs and identify additional savings opportunities. The intuitive interface makes it easy to track and optimize our cloud spending.
I love that the MilkStraw AI team is available 24/7. They proactively ping us to point out specific changes we can make to increase performance and lower costs. Their hands-on support ensures we're always optimizing our infrastructure.
When you're a startup, there are always growing pains, and MilkStraw AI helps you navigate growth sprints while maintaining your cloud infrastructure and scaling it efficiently in a modern way.
Their solution has proven invaluable to our operations.
