Tausi App

Cutting AWS Costs by 20% Without Downtime
Tausi App is a high-traffic mobile payments application requiring scalable, cost-efficient AWS infrastructure. Rising cloud costs were eroding margins without any corresponding improvement in performance or reliability.

The problem
Challenges

Tausi App's AWS costs were growing faster than their user base, driven by over-provisioned resources and inefficient scaling policies that didn't reflect actual traffic patterns.

Over-provisioned EC2 instances were running at low utilisation during off-peak hours.

Static scaling policies failed to adapt to Tausi's highly variable mobile traffic patterns.

Cost visibility was limited — the team had no clear view of which services were driving spend.

What we did
Solution

Nife Cost provided full AWS cost visibility, implemented dynamic auto-scaling, and right-sized compute to match Tausi's real usage patterns.

Cost Visibility Dashboard: Full breakdown of AWS spend by service, region, and team.

Dynamic Auto-Scaling: EC2 instances scaled in and out based on real traffic, eliminating idle capacity.

Right-Sizing Recommendations: Over-provisioned instances downsized to match actual workload requirements.
