Infra & Cost Audit · sample deliverable
What a $1,900 audit actually gets you
Nobody should buy a report sight unseen. This is a realistic sample of the audit deliverable — the scorecard, the severity-ranked findings, the dollar estimates, and the 90-day roadmap.
Illustrative sample. A representative composite of a typical seed-stage AWS setup — not a real client's data. Your report is built from your infrastructure.

Shipping
4/10Manual deploys, no rollback

Security
3/10Shared admin access, no MFA enforcement
Cost
4/10~30% of spend is waste

Severity-ranked findings
| Severity | Finding | Why it matters | Est. value |
|---|---|---|---|
| P1Security | Six IAM users share AdministratorAccess; MFA not enforced | One leaked key = full account takeover | Risk |
| P1Reliability | Production database is single-AZ and restores have never been tested | AZ outage or bad migration = extended downtime, possible data loss | Risk |
| P2Cost | m5.2xlarge fleet averaging 22% CPU; gp2 volumes not migrated to gp3 | Right-sizing + storage migration | $14,200/yr |
| P2Shipping | Deploys are manual over SSH, ~45 minutes, no rollback path | Every deploy is a risk event; incidents extended by slow recovery | Risk |
| P2Cost | 38 unattached EBS volumes, 400+ stale snapshots, 2 idle load balancers | Pure waste — delete after snapshot review | $3,900/yr |
| P3Cost | Zero Savings Plan / Reserved coverage on steady-state workloads | Commit to 1-year no-upfront on the stable baseline | $8,600/yr |
| P3Reliability | No alerting on error rates or latency — CloudWatch defaults only | Customers find outages before the team does | Risk |
The real report explains each finding in plain language with exact resources, remediation steps, and effort estimates — written so your team can fix everything without us.

The 90-day roadmap
- Days 1–30
Kill the P1s: IAM lockdown with MFA + least privilege; Multi-AZ database with a tested restore. Delete unattached volumes (−$3,900/yr).
- Days 31–60
CI/CD pipeline with one-command rollback; right-size the fleet and migrate gp2→gp3 (−$14,200/yr); basic error-rate and latency alerts.
- Days 61–90
Savings Plan on the now-stable baseline (−$8,600/yr); dashboards for uptime, latency, and spend; runbook for the top three failure modes.
