Context

We develop an open source search engine and sell a hosted version to developers and AI product teams. A small platform team runs the multi-tenant infrastructure behind it.

Industry: DevTools & Software · Developer Tooling
Size: 11–50 employees
Region: Europe
Tools budget: under $1K per month
Needs: Cloud cost optimization. Search indexes consume memory unpredictably, so we struggle to see cloud cost per tenant and price plans accordingly.
Today: managed service moved to provisioned-resource pricing and added sharding to spread load across nodes · Urgency: this year
Internal developer platform. A handful of engineers run all hosted clusters; we need self-service provisioning and guardrails instead of manual scripts.
Today: lead platform role hired in Paris to run managed cloud on containers and infrastructure code · Urgency: this year
Who decides: cto · team trial
Expects from suppliers: Cost allocation down to the tenant and namespace; Works with our existing infrastructure-as-code; Affordable for a small company
Not a fit: Platforms that demand dedicated operators; Contracts requiring multi-year minimum spend
Stack: cloud: AWS-class hyperscaler, Kubernetes, CI/CD pipeline in place
Buying triggers: cost pressure, new market or product launch

We run heavy performance and correctness testing on our engine and its connectors, and much of it is still slow and partly manual. We need automation that handles large JVM codebases, runs well for remote engineers, and includes benchmark tooling we can repeat. Budget is modest, so pricing must stay small-team friendly. Tools built only for small codebases won't work for us.

We train and serve our own language models, and compute is one of our biggest cost lines. Today we struggle to see spend per workload, so trimming it is guesswork. A good solution must show cost per workload, run on premises or in sovereign clouds, work without permanent internet access, avoid large minimum commitments, and fit a small monthly budget.
