Cost Optimization Strategies for Cloud Users in Latin America

‍

In Latin America’s rapidly growing cloud market, organizations face a critical challenge: managing escalating cloud costs while maintaining operational efficiency. With cloud spending expected to reach $57B by 2026 in the region, businesses are losing up to 32% of their cloud investment to inefficient resource utilization. However, companies can reduce their cloud costs by 25–40% through AI-powered optimization and strategic management.
