The problem

Why AWS bills grow faster than the business.

No clear cost story

Engineers spin up resources with no one owning the bill.

OwnershipVisibility

Split metrics

Finance and engineering measure the same workload differently.

FinanceEngineering

Noisy allocation

Inconsistent tagging turns allocation reports into guesswork.

Data & automation sprawl

Workloads scale both quality and cost right across the org.

Quarterly reviews

Cost gets looked at once a quarter - after the spike has crested.

No ownership in between

Nobody owns spend between the big reviews, so it drifts.

In their words

What our clients say.

Teams that needed to ship fast, and did. Here's what partnering with Logiciel felt like from the inside.

I would highly recommend them to anyone looking to scale quickly or needing support in engineering, product, or QA.

Patrick Fingles

CEO, Leap

We don't just call them Logiciel; they're part of the Zeme team. Within the first week they were contributing meaningfully to our codebase.

Elior Alayev

Founder & CEO, Zeme

The Logiciel team worked tirelessly and built everything we needed, with security and best practices across our entire platform. It allowed us to become #1 in our industry, and we couldn't have done it without them.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions.

What are the best practices for reducing cloud infrastructure costs?

Start by understanding your spend drivers. Use Cost Explorer to find underutilized services, right-size EC2 against real CPU and memory usage, apply Savings Plans or Reserved Instances for steady workloads, and use Auto Scaling and Spot for variable or fault-tolerant ones.

Which tools do you use to manage and optimize AWS costs?

AWS-native tooling - Cost Explorer, Budgets and alerts, the Cost Optimization Hub, and Compute Optimizer for right-sizing across EC2, containers, and Lambda - plus monitoring dashboards for ongoing governance.

How do automated alerts help control spending?

Alerts notify teams when spend nears a threshold by account, service, or project - so anomalies get investigated fast, not at the end of the month.

How do you find and eliminate unused AWS resources?

Regular audits for idle EC2, unattached EBS volumes, unused load balancers, and orphaned snapshots - the quiet waste that adds up.

What are the most common AWS cost-saving features?

Savings Plans, Reserved Instances, Spot, Auto Scaling, serverless pay-per-use, tiered storage, and budgets with alerts.

How do you optimize EC2 and compute costs?

Measure real utilization - CPU, memory, network - and right-size to a better-fit instance type, then use Auto Scaling instead of always-on capacity.

How do you save on object and data storage?

Match tiers to access patterns: keep hot data in standard tiers and move cold data down with lifecycle policies.

How does right-sizing improve efficiency?

Right-sizing uses performance metrics to recommend better-fit instance types and sizes - often delivering immediate savings with no impact on the workload.
