What managed AWS hosting means
Managed AWS hosting
Managed AWS hosting — also called AWS managed hosting or Amazon managed hosting — is where an operations team runs your AWS environment for you: cost optimization, security hardening, monitoring, patching, and 24/7 incident response. Everything stays on your own AWS account with your ownership and billing visibility; ZenoCloud works inside your environment rather than reselling capacity.

What managed AWS hosting covers

This is not cloud consulting. We do not hand you a report. We operate your AWS environment — continuously, 24/7, with full engineering accountability for the outcome.

FinOps and cost optimization

Monthly cost reports, EC2 right-sizing, Reserved Instance and Savings Plan strategy, anomaly detection, and budget alerts. Cost discipline is built into the retainer, not sold as a separate engagement.

Infrastructure setup and IaC

Terraform for reproducible environments, VPC architecture, IAM roles, security groups, and network configuration. Infrastructure defined as code — not click-ops that no one can audit.

Security hardening

IAM least-privilege policies, GuardDuty, Security Hub, encryption at rest and in transit, and WAF configuration. Compliance readiness support for SOC 2, HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and the DPDP Act.

24/7 monitoring and alerting

CloudWatch, Grafana, Prometheus, and Zabbix. Alerts route to our NOC — not your inbox. We investigate and remediate before escalating to you.

Backup and disaster recovery

Automated backup policies, cross-region replication, and documented disaster recovery procedures. RTO and RPO targets defined and tested — not just hoped for.

Incident response

P1 median first-touch under 15 minutes. Triage, remediate, root-cause analysis, and post-incident summary. Our NOC runs 24/7/365 — no after-hours surcharges.

Managed AWS hosting vs cloud consulting

Cloud consulting is advisory. Managed AWS hosting is operational. The difference matters when something breaks at 2am.

A note from the founder

Your AWS account, our operations. I sign off on every onboarding.

Managed AWS isn't a SaaS subscription. It's a relationship — your engineers stop owning the pager, and ours pick it up. That handoff is the make-or-break moment, and I'm personally on every onboarding call to make sure we earn it.

We've been running production infrastructure since 2009 — 17 years. AWS-primary work has been the fastest-growing slice of that for the last 5 years — Indian SaaS at Series A–C, US SaaS with India teams, e-commerce on modern stacks.

If you're spending $10K–$200K/mo on AWS and your DevOps lead is moonlighting from another role, we're built for you. Start with the Cost Review — ₹25,000 / $349, delivered in days. A senior engineer works through your account, I sign off on the findings, and the fee is credited against your first retainer month if you keep going with us.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How is managed AWS hosting different from cloud consulting?
Cloud consulting is advisory — we design your architecture, review your costs, and hand you a plan. Managed AWS hosting is operational — we implement the plan and then run the environment ongoing. We respond to incidents, apply patches, manage your CI/CD, and optimize your bill month after month. Consulting is a project. Managed hosting is an ongoing relationship.
How is managed AWS priced?
Flat monthly quotes — never a percentage of your AWS spend or a share of savings. Two tracks: the SMB track starts from ₹50,000/mo ($600/mo) and covers monitoring, incidents, patching, and a monthly cost review. The Growth track starts from ₹1,50,000/mo ($1,800/mo) and adds a named engineer, architecture reviews, DR planning, and a deeper FinOps cadence. Every quote is scoped to your environment, and the ₹25,000 / $349 Cost Review fee is credited against your first month.
Do you take over our AWS account or work within it?
We work within your account. You grant us an IAM role with the permissions needed to do the work. You retain full admin access and full visibility into everything we do via CloudTrail. We are not a reseller and there is no intermediary layer — your AWS costs go directly to your AWS billing, not through us (unless you specifically request consolidated billing).
What access does ZenoCloud need to manage our AWS environment?
We create a ZenoCloud IAM role with specific permissions: EC2 read/write, RDS read/write, CloudWatch, Cost Explorer read, S3 for Terraform state, and service-specific permissions based on your stack. We document every permission we request and explain why it is needed. You can audit our access in IAM at any time.
How much will you reduce our AWS bill?
It depends on your starting point, and we won't quote a number before an engineer has looked at your account. The common sources of savings: over-provisioned EC2 instances (the most frequent), missing Reserved Instances or Savings Plans, unused EBS volumes, misconfigured NAT gateways, high data transfer costs, and idle resources. The AWS Cost Review — ₹25,000 / $349, credited against your first retainer month — shows you the specific opportunities and projected impact before you commit.
What is the difference between managed AWS hosting and managed hosting services?
Managed hosting services (/managed-hosting-services/) is for workloads running on infrastructure ZenoCloud deploys and manages directly — shared nodes, dedicated VPS, and bare metal servers we provision and operate. Managed AWS hosting is for workloads already on AWS — we manage your AWS environment, not infrastructure we provision ourselves. If you are on AWS and want to stay there, this is the right page. If you want us to provision and manage the infrastructure ourselves, see /managed-hosting-services/.
How quickly can you onboard us?
Typically 5–10 business days from signed agreement. Week 1: IAM access provisioning, baseline review, CloudWatch and Zabbix monitoring setup. Week 2: first optimization sprint, Terraform state for your existing resources, Grafana dashboard configuration. You see the first monthly cost report at the end of week 2.
What happens to our infrastructure if we end the engagement?
We remove the ZenoCloud IAM role. You receive all Terraform state files, Grafana dashboard configs, CI/CD pipeline definitions, runbooks, and documentation we created. Everything is in standard formats — not locked to our tooling. Your infrastructure continues to run normally. Nothing we built depends on our continued access.
Do you manage multi-region or multi-account AWS setups?
Yes. Multi-region and AWS Organizations multi-account setups are common on the Growth track. We use AWS Control Tower and Organizations for governance, with centralized CloudTrail and centralized billing visibility. Cross-region DR setups are part of the Growth track.
