In today’s complex digital landscape, organizations are embracing Multi-cloud strategies to enhance flexibility, scalability, and uptime. Yet, while multiple Cloud providers can deliver performance and reliability, Additionally, they result in a complex and intricate set of cost management challenges.
From initial migrations to post-deployment spend, IT leaders are under pressure to monitor and control Cloud Costs. Unfortunately, many providers offer only basic tools, leading to incomplete visibility, surprise bills, and frustrated teams.
That’s why Wanclouds introduced VPC+ Multi-Cloud Spend Visibility and Cost Optimization as a Service. This smarter, more proactive solution empowers IT teams to take control of their Cloud environments, especially within AWS and IBM Cloud ecosystems.
The Rise of Application Sprawl and Costs
As Cloud-native adoption grows, so does the volume of deployed applications. According to McAfee, large enterprises average 788 custom apps, while even smaller businesses manage over 20 cloud-based apps.
That may not seem like much—until you realize these apps are often managed by under-resourced teams juggling development, testing, production, and migration tasks. This complexity is compounded when moving between Cloud environments.
According to Wanclouds’ 2022 Cloud-Native Trends Report, most organizations report that it takes 1–2 months to fully migrate a single Cloud application, and that’s if all goes smoothly.
Managing Migration Costs Before They Spiral
Migration delays and overages are a top concern. Many enterprises underestimate the resources needed to move between cloud environments, leading to inflated budgets and stalled timelines.
Wanclouds solves this with Migration-as-a-Service (MaaS), offered via VPC+, delivering:
- Predictable, per-unit pricing
- Partial or full infrastructure migration
- 50 %+ cost savings compared to traditional processes
Whether you're modernizing infrastructure or transitioning between clouds, MaaS provides a transparent path to managing migration costs and complexity, without breaking your budget.
The Escalating Cost of Downtime in 2025
Downtime is not just a technical hiccup—it’s a major financial threat.
- Gartner estimates that average downtime now costs $5,600 per minute.
- ITIC’s most recent survey found that 98% of enterprises experience over $100,000 in losses per hour of downtime.
Every minute matters. That’s why a cost optimization strategy must go hand-in-hand with a robust Disaster Recovery Plan.
VPC+ bundles Disaster Recovery as a Service (DRaaS) into its suite, offering:
- Instant Kubernetes & VPC backups
- Cross-region restore capabilities
- Low-touch, on-demand Disaster Recovery
This means businesses can mitigate risk and recover faster, without expensive hardware or rigid contracts.
You Can’t Optimize What You Can’t See
Tracking cloud usage across multiple providers is a complex, time-consuming task, especially when each platform offers its own siloed, limited toolset.
That’s where Wanclouds Multi-Cloud Spend Visibility and Cost Optimization truly shines. With just a few clicks, IT teams can access a unified dashboard that provides real-time insights into cloud resource usage and expenses.
Key Features Include:
