### AI overview

Nirmata describes applying its Cost Analyzer and Resource Hygiene Cloud Agents across an enterprise customer's 40-cluster production Kubernetes fleet. The scans identified a roughly $107,000 monthly compute baseline and about 50% recoverable through right-sizing before stale-resource cleanup, while revealing recurring sources of waste and governance gaps.
