IONOS has launched its new Cloud Savings Plans, a usage-commitment model that cuts cloud infrastructure costs by up to 47% without giving up the elasticity of paying only for what you use.
In exchange for committing to a minimum spend or usage level over one or three years, a company gets a significantly lower price than on-demand pricing, while keeping the flexibility to scale resources within that commitment according to actual business needs.
Savings Plans fit best for predictable, stable workloads — the core infrastructure a company knows it will need for months or years — leaving the on-demand model for occasional spikes or projects with an uncertain duration. Combining both approaches is usually the most efficient FinOps strategy.
It is another step in the trend of European providers offering competitive pricing against the big hyperscalers, without giving up the sovereignty and compliance guarantees increasingly sought by companies in the EU.
