Description

The Cloud Repatriation Analyzer (CRA) assesses workloads in public cloud environments like AWS, GCP, Azure, and DigitalOcean to determine the viability and cost-effectiveness of transitioning to bare-metal hosting. Key Features: Cross-Cloud Resource Mapping: Utilizes read-only APIs to seamlessly integrate and visualize assets spanning compute, storage, databases, and networking. Intelligent Waste Detection: Analyzes a month's worth of usage data to uncover inefficiencies such as ghost storage, inactive instances, idle load balancers, and potential egress leaks. Migration Planning Blueprinting: Aligns cloud workloads with appropriately sized bare-metal servers (e.g., Hetzner, OVH), providing a detailed comparison of Hybrid and Full Migration strategies. Cost & Return Analytics: Evaluates monthly operational expense reductions, initial setup investments, break-even periods, and projected Total Cost of Ownership over one, three, and five years. Comprehensive Executive Reporting: Generates migration plans that can be exported, outlining specific resource actions, server performance metrics, and dependencies on managed services, ensuring stakeholders have a clear understanding of the migration process. Additionally, this analysis empowers organizations to make informed decisions regarding their cloud strategy.

Pricing Details

$249
Cloud Repatriation Analyzer operates on a transparent, transactional pricing model of $249 USD per cloud account analyzed across AWS, Google Cloud, Azure, and DigitalOcean. Built around a friction-free pay-per-report structure, CRA eliminates recurring SaaS subscriptions, long-term retainers, and hidden fees. Organizations pay strictly on demand for the specific infrastructure environments they evaluate, with seamless, localized payment processing handled via Stripe Hosted Checkout.

Each $249 report unlocks a complete, print-ready Cloud Repatriation Blueprint that quantifies the exact financial viability of migrating to dedicated hosting. This includes automated idle resource detection, direct bare-metal hardware mapping to providers like Hetzner and OVH, net monthly OpEx savings, break-even payback timelines, and Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) projections across 1-, 3-, and 5-year horizons. Connecting cloud credentials for initial infrastructure ingestion and idle resource detection is completely free, enabling technical leaders to evaluate their baseline footprint before unlocking full migration analytics.
