Pay Exactly for the Storage You Need, When You Need It

Achieve better application stability and resilience, 
without the high price tag

Zesty Disk

How it works

Optimize performance, ensure stability, and save up to 70% on cloud storage costs by automatically shrinking and expanding block storage volumes according to real-time application needs.

Solutions Enabled by Zesty Disk

Immediate Savings from Day 1

Across the industry, large data applications tend to only use roughly 30% of available storage capacity. Storage tends to be way over-provisioned just in case of data peaks and the risk of running into insufficient space.  On installation, Zesty immediately brings down the provisioned allocation to the used amount, delivering enormous savings, and then continues to increase volumes as data ingestion incrementally grows over time.

Seamless Data Management

Workloads like short-lived applications, data streaming, ETLs, or ML pipelines are all often subject to volatile data ingestion with steep peaks and troughs that can be difficult to manage. 

Auto-scaling the filesystem makes it possible to seamlessly accommodate changes in data flows, especially when working with thousands of single servers.

Efficiently Utilize Resources

Provisioning storage is guesswork. With so many changing variables, it can be difficult to know in advance how much storage your application will require. Zesty Disk totally mitigates this risk by scaling storage size according to real-time data demand. So there is always just enough capacity, whenever it’s needed.

Optimizing native storage with the simplicity
of a fully automated service

No Interruption

Add and remove volumes in run-time without having to pause availability.

Cloud Native

Works on native EBS volumes, using existing cloud policies and SLAs.

Immediate ROI

Start scaling with just small filesystems and stop paying for any excess capacity
from day 1.

Bill Transparency

Purchase through the AWS marketplace for consistent and unified billing.

It’s not just about saving costs, it’s about keeping things stable and secure.

Frequently Asked Questions

There is no direct impact on the instance or application itself when using Auto Scaling Group with Zesty Disk. Using Zesty Disk (with or without ASG) will increase your IOPS performance (read and write) and avoid downtime to expand and release space.

Yes, every event that has occurred to either expand or release space on your EBS volume is recorded in the event Log. This is accessible on the dashboard with date and search functions available.

The Zesty Disk agent collects performance metrics such as disk usage, capacity, IOPS and throuput and disk metadata such as instance type, disk type, volume names etc.

A virtual disk is augmented on the EBS volume attached to the instance. The cloud provider’s block storage devices continue to be used as before, therefore all the native tools, procedures and SLA’s remain untouched and unchanged. You remain the owner of your data and the only one that has access to it.

There are a number of security mechanisms employed by Zesty Disk. Firstly, only meta-data and usage metrics are collected, Zesty doesn’t have access to any data on the disk or the EC2 instance. You remain the owner of your data and the only one that has access to it. These metrics are reported to an encrypted endpoint, which is sent unidirectionally to Zesty’s backend. Ongoing adjustments use an IAM Cross-Account role combined with an external ID that provides 2FA. The IAM role is restricted to a minimal set of API permissions that are required to perform the management operations. All of Zesty’s architecture is serverless which means there are no servers or databases involved and all data collected resides within AWS.
