Leanspace

Meet Leanspace

A pioneering French independent software vendor that stands at the forefront of the space industry, Leanspace specializes in cloud-native satellite Command and Control, Mission Planning, and Flight Dynamics systems. The company empowers organizations to build entire space software infrastructures tailored to their individual needs. At the heart of its business lies a highly adaptable digital platform that enables rapid development of custom applications. Taking a modular approach, Leanspace provides robust infrastructure covering approximately 80% of the solution, allowing clients to customize the remaining 20% without building from scratch.

The Challenge

Leanspace needed to optimize cloud economics to maximize ROI and scale confidently. The company faced challenges with detecting inefficiencies in real-time, translating cloud bills into actionable insights, and maintaining cost accountability across stakeholders. With rapidly evolving cloud environments leading to unforeseen expenses, Leanspace required transparent reporting and optimized resource utilization.

The Solution

Leanspace implemented Cloud Intelligence™ for advanced cloud governance, Real-Time Anomaly Detection for predictable spend, and Cloud Analytics for bill transparency. The solution included Flexsave for Compute optimization and access to DoiT's senior cloud architects for AWS expertise. This comprehensive approach provided automated cost management, real-time monitoring, and data-driven decision-making capabilities.

Results

  • Achieved 14% savings on cloud spend through Flexsave for Compute optimization
  • Implemented automated anomaly detection to catch unusual usage and prevent cost spikes
  • Gained transparent cloud bill reporting and cost allocation across teams
  • Built robust infrastructure foundations for scalability and investor confidence

Cost optimization isn't just about saving money. It's about fueling our ability to invest and grow. The more we save, the more money we have to put back into innovation and expansion.

Gert Villemos, CTO at Leanspace

Advanced Cloud Governance for Investment

DoiT collaborated closely with Leanspace to deliver governed optimization and tangible financial savings. Senior cloud architects thoroughly reviewed existing infrastructure and introduced advanced cloud governance with Flexsave for Compute. This enabled Leanspace to automate cloud cost management intricacies and demonstrate optimized AWS spend to potential investors. The solution automatically detects cost inefficiencies across the business, empowering Leanspace to reinvest savings in growth and pursue high profit margins as it transitions from startup to mature business.

Real-Time Anomaly Detection

To help Leanspace automatically monitor cloud consumption and catch unintended usage, DoiT introduced Real-Time Anomaly Detection. This solution enables swift identification and rectification of infrastructure inefficiencies, minimizing impact of unplanned cost spikes while maintaining adherence to cloud cost budgets. With robust cost guardrails, Leanspace gained independence to automatically forecast spending, ensuring financial stability and informing strategic planning. The CTO noted that anomaly detection helps quickly catch anything unusual or unnecessary, saving time and keeping operations running smoothly.

Cloud Analytics for Data-Driven Decisions

Cloud Analytics introduced FinOps principles and best practices, reinforcing Leanspace's positioning to investors while laying IT foundations for scalability. The solution empowered the team to translate cloud bills into actionable insights, fostering team-level accountability and faster decisions. With strategic cost allocation capabilities and effective collaboration on cost management, Leanspace harnessed data-driven decision-making to optimize cloud investments. From budgeting to reporting to optimization across AWS infrastructure, Cloud Analytics proved vital for keeping cloud investments aligned with business priorities.

Expert AWS Partnership

As a scaling business, Leanspace's ability to utilize DoiT's expert AWS senior cloud architects proved critical for delivering continuous improvements to its digital platform. With over 400 AWS certifications and DoiT's close working relationship with AWS, the partnership leverages latest advancements in cloud technology. This provides unrivaled three-way collaboration, working in synergy to problem-solve and deliver cutting-edge, tailored solutions. The DevOps Engineer highlighted how DoiT's AWS partnership empowered discovery of products aligning with designs while generating advanced reports reflecting results, changes, and anomalies.

Future Growth and Expansion

Leanspace's cloud optimization journey with DoiT has positioned the company for its next big leap. With Cloud Intelligence™ and FinOps practices, Leanspace built robust infrastructure that efficiently handles data growth with predictable spend. As the company gears up for rapid expansion, DoiT ensures equipment to tackle upcoming challenges. Future plans include Marketplace integration, Kubernetes project implementation, and Terraform utilization assessment to help Leanspace manage growth with ease while maintaining its position as a strong, sustainable business in the space industry.
