The Cloud Cost Problem Tanzu CloudHealth Solves

Organizations running workloads across multiple cloud providers struggle with cost visibility, resource waste, and inconsistent governance. Without a unified view of cloud spend, teams overprovision resources, miss optimization opportunities, and cannot hold business units accountable for their consumption.

Cloud cost visibility

Lack of Cost Visibility

Multi-cloud environments generate massive amounts of billing data across different formats and pricing models. Without centralized reporting, finance and IT teams cannot answer basic questions about where money is being spent.

Tanzu CloudHealth aggregates cost data across all major cloud providers into a single platform with custom dashboards, cost allocation, and chargeback reporting tailored to your business structure.

Resource optimization

Wasted Cloud Resources

Studies consistently show that 25-30% of cloud spend is wasted on idle, oversized, or orphaned resources. Manual identification of waste does not scale across thousands of cloud resources.

Tanzu CloudHealth provides actionable rightsizing recommendations for IaaS and PaaS services, identifies unused resources, and manages reservations and savings plans from a single optimization dashboard.

Cloud governance

Inconsistent Governance

As cloud usage scales, maintaining consistent policies across providers and teams becomes increasingly difficult. Cost overruns, security misconfigurations, and compliance gaps emerge without automated enforcement.

Tanzu CloudHealth enables governance policies with automated actions that continuously monitor your environment, alert stakeholders when conditions deviate, and proactively reduce spend and risk.
