What is ParkMyCloud and how does it work?
ParkMyCloud is a SaaS platform that automatically identifies and eliminates public cloud resource waste, reducing spending by 65% or more — think “Nest for the cloud.” AWS, Azure, and Google users such as McDonald’s, Sysco Foods, Unilever, Avid, and Sage Software have used ParkMyCloud to cut their cloud spending by millions of dollars. ParkMyCloud helps companies like these optimize and govern cloud usage by integrating cost control into their DevOps processes.
It’s easy to get started using ParkMyCloud:
1. Set up your ParkMyCloud account. (Free Trial. No credit card required.)
2. Connect with your cloud service provider to discover your cloud computing resources.
3. Start “parking” your cloud computing resources with scheduled “on/off” times.
