IICOMBINED is a company that operates the fashion eyewear brand "Gentle Monster," the cosmetic brand "Tamburins," and the dessert brand "Nudake." By offering new and innovative experiences, it is securing a fan base centered on the MZ generation. Particularly, Gentle Monster is rapidly growing as a global brand with over 40 directly operated stores in Asia, Europe, and the United States.
All services provided by IICOMBINED are operated on AWS cloud. As the business rapidly grows and the number of services we operate increases, we felt the need to enhance our cloud infrastructure and manage it more efficiently.
In particular, we needed to address the inconvenience of operating multiple services under a single AWS account. AWS provides cost details only on an account basis, making it difficult to check cost information by service apart from the total cost. However, to efficiently manage cloud infrastructure, we needed detailed data on how costs were being used for each service.
In OpsNow, you can create and manage service groups based on tags. For instance, iCombine attaches tags to service logic such as websites, e-commerce, and payments, allowing them to immediately check detailed usage and costs within a single account. Additionally, by identifying and optimizing resources that have been created but are not in use, or that can be used more efficiently, we were able to reduce costs.
Through OpsNow, we were able to manage our cloud infrastructure more systematically, conduct right-sizing of resources, and optimize costs. We look forward to even more stable services and continuous cost-saving effects in the future. Additionally, since the entire OpsNow team understands the infrastructure situation and operations of our company, their response speed to service requests is much faster, allowing us to entrust them with confidence.
