EveryCloudX was founded by Keith Purves, Khalid Mohamed, Paul Richards, Rob Mukherjee, and Silvia Tomlinson. Currently, 20% of enterprises have stated that their annual spending exceeds $12M, while 74% reported that their cloud spending exceeds $1.2M annually (Flexera). The average organisation currently has over 1200 cloud applications, and only uses roughly 60% of such applications (Frost). This results in unnecessary spending and increased carbon emissions from data centres, which account for 2% of global electricity use. The COVID-19 pandemic will further exacerbate the challenge of unmanaged cloud applications. EveryCloud will enable companies to reduce energy consumption on unused applications. It will be Europe’s first scalable, fully automated solution to create a single system of records for cloud applications.
