EMP by Platform9
Platform9 empowers DevOps, FinOps, and Platform Engineering teams to deploy, manage and run highly efficient cloud infrastructure anywhere, eliminating operational hurdles and cost concerns, and freeing developers and data scientists to innovate.
Product or Service Overview
Elastic Machine Pool optimizes EKS CPU and memory utilization, reducing costs by 50% or more – without requiring changes to your developers’ workload definitions, and without requiring you to stop using tools like Karpenter that you may already have deployed. EMP creates and manages an alternative virtualization layer, allowing it to automatically deploy “Elastic VM” EKS nodes on AWS bare-metal. These can be consolidated and live-migrated to reclaim unused resource allocations and rebalance resource usage as needed – resulting in >70% resource efficiency while minimizing or even eliminating impact to disruption-sensitive workloads.
