Koibanx: 30% Lower AWS Costs via Cloud Automation

Reducing AWS Costs by 30% Through Cloud Automation and Governance

Rapid growth left Koibanx managing hundreds of AWS instances with rising costs, governance gaps, and a growing operational burden on its internal team. Netrix implemented Robotize Control Tower with automated account governance, single sign-on, and multi-factor authentication to standardize and secure the environment. The engagement cut AWS costs by up to 30% while letting a smaller team manage the cloud environment more efficiently.
