Kaytu recommends optimal workload configurations based on actual-usage. Cut costs without compromising reliability.

• Ease of use: One-line command. Use without modifying workloads or making configuration changes.
• Optimize: Optimize AWS EC2 Instances & AWS RDS Instances/Clusters.
• Base on actual Usage: Analyzes the past seven days of usage from Cloud native monitoring (CloudWatch).
• Customize: Optimize for region, CPU, memory, network performance, storage, licenses, and more to match your specific requirements.
• Secure - no credentials to share; extracts required metrics from the client side
• Open philosophy Use without fear of lock-in. The CLI is open-sourced, and the Server side will be open-sourced soon.
• Coming Soon: Non-Interactive mode, GCP, Azure, GPU Optimization and Observability data from Prometheus
