With Zesty Kompass, experience lightning-fast scaling for seamless horizontal and vertical K8s optimization. Cut costs and maintain peak performance at every layer of your infrastructure.
Trusted by the best to optimize at scale
CAST AI offers a robust set of features. However, Zesty provides a more holistic platform, ensuring that all aspects of your Kubernetes infrastructure are optimized for both performance and cost.
Keep resources tightly aligned with
application demand
Scale faster to enhance efficiency
Stop overprovisioning CPU just to handle traffic peaks. Zesty’s trademarked HiberScale™ technology reduces application start time by 80%, boosting SLAs and slashing idle CPU resources while keeping every spike under control.
Automate pod rightsizing at scale
Dynamically adjust CPU and memory allocations at the container level based on live usage metrics to maintain optimal application performance and reduce waste from static resource requests.
Autoscale persistent volumes
Replace overprovisioned storage with dynamic, usage-based scaling. Automatically increase and reduce PVC capacity in response to workload dynamic requirements, maintaining uptime without overpaying for unused storage.
Safely maximize Spot coverage
Confidently run critical workloads on Spot Instances with Zesty’s Spot Protection. Pods are moved to new nodes within 30 seconds, before interruptions hit – keeping your app always on while maximizing savings.
Flexible commitments optimization
Gain workload visibility & insights
Streamline monitoring with real-time visibility into resource consumption, costs, and potential savings – all from a single interface designed to support fast, data-driven optimizations.
Optimized for any application or workload
Our trademarked technologies power real-time automation to allocate exactly the resources you need – scaling instantly for peak performance and cost efficiency.
Multi-dimensional automation
Simultaneously apply horizontal and vertical autoscaling strategies and continuously optimize compute and storage across your entire Kubernetes environment.
Advanced predictive scaling
AI-powered algorithms analyze historical and real-time utilization patterns to accurately forecast workload demand, proactively adjusting resources before usage spikes occur.
Fast application boot time
Boost cluster efficiency with HiberScale™ Technology. Hibernated nodes spin up in under 30 seconds with pre-cached container images, accelerating application start times and maintaining SLAs.
Trusted by winning engineering teams worldwide
reliability, innovation, and support.
Quick answers
for curious minds
How does the pricing model work?
Our pricing model is designed to be straightforward and transparent. We charge a base fee plus a fee per CPU or Storage managed by Zesty. Importantly, you’re only billed for the CPU or storage capacity managed after optimization. This ensures that you pay only for the resources we actively manage, delivering clear value with every CPU optimized.
Will cost optimization impact my applications’ performance?
No, our platform is designed to maintain performance, ensure stability and preserve SLAs, while optimizing costs. Automation keeps CPU and storage available when needed, ensuring applications run smoothly even as costs are reduced.
Is there a complex setup or onboarding process?
No, our platform is designed for a quick and simple onboarding process. Most customers are up and running within minutes, with full support to ensure a smooth start on our platform.
How long does it take to see savings after implementation?
Why choose Zesty over CAST AI?
While CAST AI offers robust automation, Zesty provides a more comprehensive platform by adding storage auto-scaling and unique fast node scaling capabilities that enhance HPA and Spot instance adoption. This ensures deeper optimization across compute, storage, and financial layers, all fully automated to maximize efficiency and reduce costs.
