Stop Overspending, Optimize Your Instances with Smart Scheduling

October 4, 2025

Many AWS users leave their instances on 24/7, even when they aren’t actively being used. The result? Unnecessary cloud costs, wasted resources, and lower ROI on your cloud investment. In a world where every dollar matters, idle instances can silently eat into your budget.

The Problem

Dev instances are vital for testing and experimentation, but they don’t need to run 24/7. Teams often leave them on because manual shutdowns are tedious, driving up cloud bills and wasting resources. Without automation, cost optimization becomes a constant monitoring burden for already busy teams.

Vazu’s Approach

Vazu’s scheduler lets customers automatically power down dev instances during idle times, overnight, on weekends, or other non-working hours, ensuring resources run only when they are needed. This saves costs, removes manual effort, and keeps development workflows uninterrupted.

The Outcomes

By using scheduled dev instances, customers can:

  • Reduce unnecessary cloud spend, by shutting down idle resources.
  • Save operational time, removing the need for manual monitoring or shutdowns.
  • Maintain workflow efficiency, ensuring instances are available when teams actually need them.

Maximize ROI on cloud investments, turning idle infrastructure into tangible cost savings. With Vazu’s scheduler, managing dev instances becomes both effortless and strategic. Customers no longer need to worry about wasted resources, allowing teams to focus on innovation while keeping expenses under control.
