Cloud Data Cost Optimization
The Challenge:
Is Your Cloud Data Infrastructure Costing Too Many Millions?
The urgent need for data-led innovation collides with the ballooning costs of cloud infrastructure and processing, jeopardizing ROI for many data teams. Key culprits include:
EXPLOSIVE GROWTH
Explosive growth of data volumes and complexity
Data Mesh and Data Fabric architectures risk the duplication of data and processing a
RISING EXPECTATIONS
Rising expectations for data availability and performance
MESSY DATA ORCHESTRATION
Inefficient data orchestration pipelines and a lack of optimization:
UNDER-USED OPPORTUNITIES
Underutilization of cloud-native cost optimization features
COMPETING PRIORITIES
Accumulated technical debt due to competing priorities for data teams to deliver more projects and value, faster

CASE STUDY
Qbiz Achieves $560k p.a. savings for a FinTech Co
CHALLENGE
- Soaring cloud data warehouse expenses, nearing $580,000 yearly, for just part of its data environment.
- Internal teams lacked the dedicated time and specialized data engineering expertise to identify and resolve these cost inefficiencies.
SOLUTION
- Qbiz engineers analyzed the key factors for poor performance,
- Precision-targeted the highest-cost tasks with minimal changes.
RESULTS
- Unlocked massive savings in a short amount of time
- 97% Cloud data-warehouse cost reduction within the project's scope, from $580k to under $20k
How Qbiz Quickly Surfaced and Seized theSE Savings Opportunities
Qbiz consultants analyzed the key factors for poor performance, enabling us to precision-target the highest-cost tasks with minimal changes. The following adjustments and code changes unlocked massive savings and took only a relatively short time to find and implement.
- Precision loading
- Data pipelines scheduling
- Efficient & effective SQL
- Modernized tool stack
- Reusable code patterns
- Robust backfills
Implemented precision, incremental data loading leveraging Snowflake CDC events, replacing inefficient full daily reprocessing of massive datasets.
Optimized data pipeline schedules to align update frequencies with actual usage
Optimized SQL to prevent Snowflake from scanning all micro-partitions, e.g., by coding more efficient filters, aggregation functions, and data transformations.
Reviewed tool stack, data structures, and orchestration for cost efficiency
Provided reusable code patterns for efficient data capture.
Enabled backfills without requiring code changes.
