How to cut your Kubernetes cloud costs by over 50%
summary
CAST AI claims it cuts Azure customers’ cloud costs by over 50% by installing a read-only agent that immediately powers a unified cost dashboard, rightsizes containers using ML-based recommendations (95th percentile for CPU, 99th for memory) from a five-day window, and analyzes network egress via an Egressd sidecar. Reports show top‑5 costly workloads, compute and network breakdowns, 15‑second snapshot accuracy, and measured reductions in overprovisioning and monthly spend after automation is enabled.
