Meet Carto

The Challenge
As Carto scaled its operations on Google Cloud, managing infrastructure costs and efficiency became a growing focus. The company ran numerous services and needed a more efficient way to monitor, optimize, and allocate cloud resources effectively. Cost optimization was the initial priority, but as Carto dug deeper, it saw opportunities to improve overall cloud utilization and infrastructure efficiency.
