Solomon e3 Reduces Cloud Spend by Over Half After Migrating to NexQloud
Solomon e3, an energy infrastructure company, has migrated its development and MVP environment from AWS to NexQloud One. The move was driven by a Qlarity FinOps review that identified inefficiencies in cloud spending. As a result of the migration, Solomon e3 reduced its monthly cloud costs by more than half through eliminating idle resources, resizing overprovisioned capacity, and leveraging less expensive compute options. The platform now runs on NexQloud NanoServers™—ISV-certified Lenovo devices powered by Intel Core i9-14900T processors. These servers require no additional cooling or power distribution infrastructure, making them more energy-efficient than traditional cloud setups. The migration did not involve rewriting application code and has maintained uptime without unplanned downtime. Solomon e3 plans to commission an independent academic review of the platform’s cost efficiency and energy usage compared to its previous AWS setup. NexQloud claims that for identical configurations, their infrastructure costs about a third less than AWS at published list prices.
