Unified Cloud Storage Cost Optimization Platform

P6/10April 7, 2026
WhatA platform that automatically analyzes and optimizes cloud storage costs across S3, EFS, FSx, and new hybrid tiers like S3 Files, recommending the cheapest architecture for each workload.
SignalAWS keeps layering new storage abstractions (S3, EFS, FSx Lustre, Mountpoint-S3, now S3 Files) each with different pricing models, and engineers struggle to predict costs or choose the right tier for their access patterns.
Why NowS3 Files adds yet another storage option with opaque cost implications, making the decision matrix exponentially harder for engineering teams already overwhelmed by AWS pricing complexity.
MarketCloud infrastructure teams at mid-to-large companies spending $50K+/mo on AWS storage; TAM $2B+ in cloud cost management. Competes with Vantage, CloudHealth, but none specialize deeply in storage tier optimization.
MoatDeep integration with AWS billing APIs and workload telemetry creates proprietary cost models that improve with each customer's usage data.
