OneHourTranslation is the web’s leading Professional Translation Service, offering its services to thousands of business customers worldwide, 24/7.

The company utilizes AWS Cloud to run its web operation on an elastic environment. In order to support the agile demand, OneHourTranslation is taking advantage of the AWS cloud products, including Amazon’s Elastic Block Store (EBS), Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3), Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2), Simple Queue Service (SQS), Domain Name System (DNS, Amazon Route 53), and more. 

Newvem considers OneHourTranslation an advanced user of Amazon cloud. The typical advanced AWS user enjoys the great benefit of the cloud on their journey to deliver a robust online service free of “physical servers”, but eventually finds that the high granularity of the cloud and the fast uncontrolled ramp-up lead to costs and security inefficiencies.

Quickly after starting to use Newvem analytics, the company started to benefit from Newvem’s insights and recommendations. Besides taking care of security risks pointed out by Newvem, OneHourTranslation saved 15% in monthly EC2 costs.

 We discovered several insights that we were not aware of prior to using Newvem in fields of Security and Cost. For instance, we discovered that 15% of One Hour Translation’s monthly AWS cost is spent on idle and old resources.”
