Every Disk, Priced for What It Actually Does
Managed Disks are provisioned once and rarely revisited, leaving teams overpaying for performance tiers they don't need, exposed to bottlenecks when they under-provision, or paying for orphaned disks no one owns. Sedai continuously rightsizes tiers, reclaims unattached disks, and migrates to newer, more cost-effective disk types.
Disk Costs Drift in Both Directions — and Nobody's Watching
Choosing a performance tier isn't a one-time decision, and getting it wrong doesn't fail loudly. Tier mismatches, deleted VMs that leave their disks behind, and disk types that go stale all quietly add up, with no natural trigger to catch them.
Performance tiers get chosen once and assumed correct forever.
Premium SSDs are the default safety net for uncertain I/O needs, but that same instinct also produces the opposite failure: a tier too slow for the workload, causing latency and availability problems on the attached VM.
Deleting a VM doesn't delete its disks.
Data disks routinely survive the VM they were attached to, continuing to accrue storage costs indefinitely with no compute workload — and often no clear owner — to flag them.
Disk technology keeps improving, but migrations don't happen on their own.
Newer disk types like Premium SSD v2 frequently offer better performance at a lower price than their predecessors, but nothing prompts a team to revisit disks that were provisioned years earlier.
How We Help
Performance Tier Rightsizing
Sedai analyzes historical IOPS and throughput to move underused disks to lower-cost tiers, upgrade bottlenecked disks, and migrate to newer types like Premium SSD v2.
Unattached Disk Cleanup
Sedai identifies orphaned disks with no attached VM and recommends deletion, with automatic snapshotting available first to protect against data loss.
Safe, Automated Execution
Changes to disks on running VMs follow a safe sequence — safety checks, stop, apply, restart — handled automatically without manual intervention.
