Overview
As your AWS infrastructure grows, right-sizing your EBS volumes becomes crucial for both performance and cost efficiency. But what happens when your EBS volume is running out of space, or conversely, when its underutilized? Proper right-sizing is key to ensuring your storage remains optimized.
While increasing the size of an EBS volume is relatively simple, shrinking a volume is not supported. If your file system is underutilized and you want to reduce your EBS volume size, the process is more complex. It typically involves taking downtime, creating a new, smaller volume, and manually copying files over a time consuming and sometimes impractical solution, especially for critical systems.
Right-sizing your EBS volumes without any downtime is where Datafy offers a unique advantage. Our solution automates the scaling of your EBS volumes capacity based on actual usage, seamlessly increasing or decreasing volume size as needed. This process happens without any downtime and requires no manual intervention at the application or file system level.
Highlights
- Datafy can reduce your Amazon EBS spend by up to 60% through auto-scaling your EBS volumes to eliminate over-provisioning and wasted capacity. Right-sizing your Amazon Elastic Block Storage capacity is equally important as optimizing your compute.
- Installing Datafy requires ZERO downtime and ZERO requirement for a maintenance window. Operational availability is never compromised either when installing or uninstalling Datafy. Should you decide not to continue with the Amazon EBS AutoScaling you can uninstall Datafy and revert back to your original state without any disruption or downtime whatsoever.
- Install Datafy in minutes on any cloud environment, and choose which volumes you want Datafy to manage. We work with any OS and file system, and no changes are needed to your application, workflow or users.
