Apptio, Inc. announced that it has acquired Cloudwiry, a
market leader in multi-cloud savings automation and FinOps. Founded in
2016, Cloudwiry automates commitment management and optimization on
behalf of its enterprise customers, maximizing savings, reducing risk,
and increasing flexibility.
"As broad macroeconomic headwinds continue to present themselves, our
customers increasingly rely on Apptio for visibility, optimization, and
automation to manage their public cloud spend," said Sunny Gupta,
Apptio CEO. "By pairing Apptio's market-leading Cloudability with
Cloudwiry, we are able to provide customers with unparalleled
visibility, insights, planning, optimization, and automation
capabilities for reservations and savings plans, helping customers
deploy the most efficient cloud infrastructure footprint to fuel
innovation and meet business demands."
Based in Austin, Cloudwiry was founded with the intention of
simplifying the biggest cloud cost challenges through automation and
innovation. Cloudwiry recognized sources of waste and inefficiency in
the cloud and the subsequent need for automated financial management and
enhanced cost insights. Addressing this need, Cloudwiry developed a
platform centered around automated rate optimization, rightsizing, and
interactive inventory capabilities across AWS, Azure, and GCP. Cloudwiry
helps companies better manage reserved instances and savings plans
through the Cloudwiry Savings Autopilot tool, allowing many to reach
95%+ coverage and 99% utilization.
"Not only do strong synergies exist between the Apptio and Cloudwiry
products, but we also have a shared passion for helping customers
increase productivity, reduce waste, and save money," said Aditya Datta,
founder and CEO of Cloudwiry. "Cloudwiry was built to automate cloud
financial instruments like reserved instances and savings plans so that
FinOps practitioners could focus their time on more important priorities
and companies could recognize more meaningful savings with better
coverage and utilization."
Together, Cloudwiry and Apptio will empower thousands of customers
all around the world to drive financial and operational excellence in
cloud and hybrid environments with the market's most mature and powerful
platform.
This transaction closed on December 22, 2022. Cloudwiry will no
longer operate as an independent company but will now be integrated into
Apptio.
