Cost Optimization Deep Dive: Zombie Mode and Beyond
Online Webinar | April 23, 2026 | 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM CT
Overview
Cloud costs are the silent killer of engineering budgets. Dev, staging, QA, and demo environments run 24/7 but are only actively used 8-10 hours a day. That's 60% waste sitting on your cloud bill every month.
In this webinar, Ben Ghazi dives deep into Codiac's cost optimization capabilities, starting with Zombie Mode—our approach to automatically sleeping and waking non-production environments on a schedule. We'll also cover broader strategies for right-sizing clusters, managing GPU costs, and eliminating cloud waste across your fleet.
