The Cloud Cost Problem

Most businesses are overpaying for cloud infrastructure. According to Flexera's 2024 State of the Cloud Report, companies waste an average of 32% of their cloud spend on unused or underutilized resources.

But here's the good news: You don't need to replatform or change your stack to save money.

The SmashByte Approach

SmashByte acts as a "technology buying agent" that gives you access to wholesale infrastructure pricing. We've negotiated relationships with 300+ vetted suppliers across cloud, telecom, and data center infrastructure.

3 Ways to Save Without Replatforming

1. Bring Your Own Cloud (BYOC)

  • Keep your existing cloud provider
  • Route workloads through wholesale infrastructure
  • Save 20-30% on compute and storage

2. Hybrid Cloud Arbitrage

  • Move non-critical workloads to wholesale cloud
  • Keep production on AWS/Azure/GCP
  • Reduce overall spend by 30-40%

3. ByteCloud Fabric

  • S3-compatible object storage at 40% less
  • GPU compute at wholesale rates
  • Same APIs, lower costs

Real-World Example

A SaaS company with $50K/month in AWS spend:

  • Moved backups and logs to ByteCloud: $12K/year saved
  • Used wholesale GPU for ML inference: $18K/year saved
  • Added wholesale SIP trunking: $8K/year saved

Total annual savings: $38K (63% ROI)
