Companies save $2M+ annually leaving cloud monopolies

Your Cloud Bill is
3× Higher Than It Should Be

Every second in the cloud costs you money. Smart companies are moving predictable workloads back on-premises while keeping the cloud for what it does best. Join the hybrid revolution that's saving millions.

The Cloud Tax is Real

You moved to the cloud without rethinking your architecture. Now you're paying enterprise prices for commodity infrastructure.

THE PROBLEM

Predictable Workloads in the Cloud

Your databases, core services, and baseline compute don't need elasticity. Yet you're paying 5-10× markup for on-demand pricing.

× $600K/year for managed databases
× 30% profit margins to cloud providers
× Vendor lock-in with proprietary APIs
THE MYTH

Complexity Reduction Never Came

The promise was fewer ops engineers and simpler systems. Reality? Same team size, new complexities, astronomical bills.

Still need security expertise
Still managing availability
Added cloud-specific complexity
THE SOLUTION

Intelligent Hybrid Architecture

Own your predictable base load. Leverage cloud for spikes, new projects, and true elasticity needs. Best of both worlds.

Intelligent Workload Placement

Not everything belongs in the cloud. Smart companies analyze each workload and place it where it delivers maximum value.

Hybrid infrastructure architecture

On-Premises

Databases, core services, predictable compute, long-running processes

Cloud Native

Auto-scaling services, serverless functions, seasonal spikes

Edge Computing

CDN, static assets, global distribution, low-latency requirements

Hybrid Storage

Hot data on-prem, cold in object storage, intelligent tiering

CASE STUDY

SaaS Company Cuts Infrastructure Costs by 60%

A growing B2B SaaS platform with 100,000+ users was spending $180K/month on AWS. Their load was predictable, their growth steady, but their cloud bill was eating into profitability.

Moved core databases to owned hardware

$52K/month → $7K/month for same performance

Kept auto-scaling services in cloud

API gateways, image processing, seasonal features

Achieved better performance metrics

50ms lower latency, 99.99% uptime maintained

Annual Savings: $2.3M

Plus improved performance and full control over infrastructure

The Uncomfortable Truth About Cloud Costs

🔍 "You're renting computers at a 300% markup"

AWS operates at 30% profit margins. That profit comes directly from your infrastructure budget. For predictable workloads, you're paying hotel prices for what should be a mortgage.

⚡ "The internet wasn't meant to run on three companies"

When AWS us-east-1 goes down, half the internet goes with it. DARPA designed the internet to be resilient and decentralized. We've perverted that vision into a handful of single points of failure.

💡 "Hardware is absurdly cheap now"

12TB of NVMe storage costs $3,000 today. Five years ago, that was $30,000. The hardware revolution happened while you were paying cloud bills.

🎯 "You still need the same ops team"

The promise of reduced complexity never materialized. You still need security experts, you still manage availability, you just added cloud-specific complexity on top.

The Hidden Costs of "Advanced" Cloud Services

When working with advanced and sophisticated technology, the cloud gives you the illusion of being the safer choice. Vector databases, GPUs, blob storage, queuing billions of messages — the truth is slightly different. What you're paying for are pre-packaged solutions wrapped on top of open-source technologies with astronomical markups.

The Markup Reality

Cloud providers charge 10-40× more for the same open-source software you could run yourself

False Security

The "safety" of managed services comes at astronomical cost with minimal actual risk reduction

Lower Barriers

These cost savings make projects feasible that would be impossible at cloud prices

💡 Real-World Example:

A search engine project handling hundreds of GPUs and terabytes of data could be sustained by just 10,000 $5/month subscriptions when self-hosted. The same project on AWS would require 400,000+ subscriptions at the same price point — making it economically impossible.
