  Additional sources of cost

  Additional sources of cost for Buyers contracting Public Cloud services may arise from variable consumption and optional service components. As IaaS and PaaS services are usage-based, costs can increase due to higher-than-forecast consumption of compute, storage, networking, or platform services driven by user demand, data growth, or changes in workload patterns.; ; Additional costs may also include data egress charges, cross-region or cross-availability-zone network traffic, and consumption of premium platform services such as advanced analytics, artificial intelligence, or enhanced security capabilities. Where Buyers elect higher support tiers from cloud service providers, these may incur additional charges aligned to overall usage.; ; Operational costs may increase where Buyers require optional managed services, extended monitoring, or bespoke configuration beyond standard service definitions. In some cases, onboarding activities such as environment design, landing zone deployment, security hardening, or migration support may be priced separately.; ; Phoenix Software supports Buyers in identifying, forecasting, and managing these potential cost drivers through transparent pricing structures, clear service definitions, and proactive cost governance.

  -

  Additional sources of cost reduction

  Buyers may benefit from several cost-reduction mechanisms when contracting Public Cloud services. Commitment-based pricing models such as AWS Savings Plans and Azure Reserved Instances enable Buyers to secure discounted rates by committing to predictable usage over one- or three-year terms, reducing long-term operational costs.; ; Consumption optimisation can further reduce costs through rightsizing of compute resources, removal of idle or underutilised services, and selection of appropriate storage tiers based on performance and access requirements. Platform-native recommendations and cost optimisation tools help identify these opportunities continuously.; ; Buyers may also benefit from public sector pricing arrangements, framework-aligned discounts, and sector-specific incentives made available by cloud service providers. Cost reductions can be achieved through architectural optimisation, including use of platform-managed services that reduce the need for customer-managed infrastructure and associated overheads.; ; Phoenix Software supports cost reduction through proactive cost reviews, optimisation recommendations, and governance guidance, helping Buyers align consumption with business need, avoid waste, and continuously improve value for money throughout the contract lifecycle.
