Take Control of EC2 Servers
EC2 Server Management to regain control of servers can help to reduce costs, cut waste and improve server efficiency
EC2 Server Management
Bring servers under control to reduce costs and improve efficiency!
Amazon EC2 servers are a cheap way to spin up new cloud servers. But without management and utilisation monitoring, it is easy to over-provision, which increases costs.
If every developer is spinning up servers as they need without a project manager or the finance team keeping track of the servers being provisioned, a shock bill can soon come through and cause issues.
Using management tools and monitoring server utilisation can allow you to increase efficiency by merging servers, scaling servers down where possible and even terminating servers where they have been left running despite not being used anymore.
Using Cloud Machine Manager to Control EC2 Servers
Cloud Machine Manager (CMM) can be used to group servers and gain visibility on when they’re turned on and off and when they’re being used. This can help you save money by setting schedules for the servers, turning them off when they don’t need to be used and automating the servers to turn on when they are needed.
CMM’s app also allows developers and users to switch servers on and off on the go, so they can switch servers on with the touch of the button as they need from wherever they are, helping to eliminate the need to access control panels and admin areas.
