Internal Sales Process & CRM
CRM Infrastructure & Context
We use Twenty CRM, a modern open-source CRM platform.
- Website: https://twenty.com
- Documentation: https://twenty.com/docs
- Github: https://github.com/twentyhq/twenty
Self-Hosted Setup: We host our CRM instance on Quave Cloud (Account: quave-cloud-sales) to maintain full control and security. The setup includes:
- Applications: Twenty Server (Main App) + Worker
- Databases: Postgres + Redis
Access:
Entity Management Rules
Our CRM structure mirrors Salesforce with three core entities: People, Companies, and Opportunities.
1. People
- Creation: Any sales user can create People.
- Mandatory Fields:
- Name
- Contact Info: At least one of Email OR Mobile.
- Best Practice: Avoid creating "loose" contacts without context.
2. Companies
- Creation: Any sales user can create Companies.
- Mandatory Fields:
- ICP (Ideal Customer Profile): You MUST select an ICP tag upon creation.
- "Best Guess" Policy:
- If you are adding a company, you likely suspect a fit. You must select your best guess for the ICP based on your current knowledge.
- Why? If you are prospecting them, you have a hypothesis. Record that hypothesis.
- Correction/Cleanup:
- If you later find the ICP was wrong, update it.
- If the company is not a fit at all, you can Delete it or re-classify the ICP as "Spam" to exclude it from funnel metrics.
3. Opportunities
- Creation: Created when an active sales conversation or negotiation begins.
- Note: This does not require a technical call to have happened yet. If you pitch Quave Cloud and get rejected immediately, that is still a valid Opportunity that goes to Closed Lost.
- Mandatory Links:
- Company: Every opportunity must be linked to a Company.
- Point of Contact: Every opportunity must have a Person linked (this serves as the main POC).
- Funnel Logic:
- Conversion Rate: Calculated based on Opportunities Created vs. Closed Won/Lost.
- Spam: If an opportunity was created in error or was spam, delete it or tag as "Spam" so it doesn't negatively impact conversion stats.
4. Tasks
- Usage: Flexible. Use tasks on People, Companies, or Opportunities to manage your follow-ups and workflow.
Sales Metrics & Goals
We track performance based on Opportunities, Technical Calls, and Closed Deals.
Key Definitions
Technical Call:
- A meeting involving Filipe Névola (or Edmar) to discuss technical requirements/architecture.
- Mandatory for Closed Won: No deal closes without a technical validation.
- Not Mandatory for Closed Lost: You can lose a deal before the tech call stage (e.g., budget mismatch, lack of interest).
- Tracking: Only completed calls count.
- No-Shows: Do not count. If a lead no-shows, remove the date or update it to the rescheduled date. The metric is "Calls Performed," not "Calls Scheduled."
Conversion Rate:
- (Closed Won) / (Total Opportunities - Spam/Deleted).
Weekly Goals (Per Person)
| Metric | Goal | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Technical Calls | 5 per week | Must be performed (dates in the past). |
| Closed Won Deals | 1 per week | New customer acquisition. |
Commission Structure
- Standard Commission: 10% of the monthly recurring revenue (MRR) paid by the client to Quave Cloud.
- Example: Client pays R$ 20,000/month → Salesperson receives R$ 2,000/month.
- Duration: Paid as long as the client pays (recurring).
- Partner Commission (Hardware/Oracle):
- If Quave Cloud receives a partner commission (e.g., from Oracle), the salesperson receives 10% of the amount Quave receives.
- Payout: Commissions are paid when Quave Cloud receives payment from the client.
Ideal Customer Profile (ICP)
🚀 ICP 1: VC-Backed Growth Companies with Cloud Credits
Venture capital-backed companies that are experiencing rapid growth and have access to cloud service credits from major providers. VC-backed companies typically qualify for substantial cloud credits (AWS up to $100K, GCP up to $200K, Azure up to $150K, OCI up to $100K) because cloud providers strategically offer credits to attract startups as long-term customers. These companies are in high-growth phases, which creates urgent infrastructure needs that cannot distract from core product development—exactly when vendor lock-in becomes most problematic.
ICP Characteristics, Pain Points & How Quave Cloud Solves Them
1. Cloud Credits & The Vendor Lock-In Trap
ICP Characteristic: VC-backed companies receive substantial cloud credits from major providers (AWS Activate, Google Cloud for Startups, Microsoft for Startups, Oracle Cloud Startup Program). These credits are strategically designed to attract startups during critical growth phases.
The Problem: Cloud providers use credits as a vendor lock-in strategy. The credits are given specifically to get companies to use that provider's platform. Once companies build their infrastructure on a specific provider, vendor lock-in becomes part of the dynamic—it's very difficult to leave even after credits expire. Even if a company receives new credits from another provider, they often stay with the first provider because migration is too complex and costly. This means companies end up spending heavily on the original provider long after credits expire, with no flexibility to chase better credit opportunities elsewhere.
The Hidden Problem: Overspending During Credits: While credits are active, companies typically pay less attention to infrastructure costs because they're not paying out of pocket yet. This creates a dangerous pattern: companies often build overkill or oversized infrastructure—super-dimensioned resources that work well and perform fine, but consume credits inefficiently. Applications may run smoothly without performance issues, but the infrastructure is wasteful. The problem compounds when credits expire: if companies didn't build a solid, optimized foundation from the start, bills become extremely expensive. By then, migration becomes much more complicated because companies used expensive proprietary services while credits were active, built oversized infrastructure, and became deeply locked into one provider's ecosystem. The critical issue is that while credits mask the cost problem, companies are building infrastructure that will become a financial burden later—and one day, that bill will arrive.
How Quave Cloud Solves This:
- Optimized infrastructure from day one: If companies contract with us from the start, we help them build optimized infrastructure from the beginning—right-sized resources, proper customization, and efficient architecture. This means credits last longer, and when credits expire, companies have a solid, cost-effective foundation instead of oversized, expensive infrastructure
- Provider portability: Our platform abstracts provider differences, making migration seamless between AWS, GCP, Azure, and OCI
- Credit optimization: We optimize credit consumption so credits last 30-50% longer through intelligent resource management
- Credit chasing strategy: Companies can strategically migrate between providers to maximize credit benefits without rebuilding infrastructure
- Zero vendor lock-in: Maintain full portability to move when new credit opportunities arise, even after credits expire on one provider
2. Growth Momentum: Why High-Growth Companies Can't Afford Infrastructure Distractions
ICP Characteristic: VC-backed companies in growth phases are actively gaining customers, hiring sales teams, scaling solutions, experiencing usage spikes, trying to avoid churn, and preparing for their next funding round.
The Problem: Companies in high-growth phases cannot afford infrastructure distractions. They cannot spend three months of roadmap on migration or cloud provider decisions. When infrastructure doesn't work, it directly impacts customer acquisition, retention, and investor confidence. These companies need infrastructure that "works from day one"—they don't have the luxury of stopping everything to fix infrastructure problems. Growth momentum requires infrastructure that scales seamlessly without becoming a bottleneck.
The Critical Problem: Discovering Issues Through Customers: One of the last things you want when running a startup is to discover system slowness or downtime through a customer complaint—and this happens frequently. Companies need to avoid churn, grow revenue, maximize capital efficiency, and prove product-market fit. In this high-stakes environment of proving product-market fit and acquiring customers while preventing churn, discovering that your system is slow through a customer notification is devastating. This connects directly to our observability solution: companies need proactive monitoring that detects issues before customers experience them.
System Slowness Is a Revenue Problem, Not Just Infrastructure: If you have a slow login screen, a SaaS application with long loading times, or an e-commerce site with slow API calls, this isn't just an infrastructure problem—it's a revenue problem. You lose sales. A satisfied customer can become churn. A purchase can become an abandoned cart. In the end, it's a revenue problem. These companies, in their high-growth moment, cannot afford this luxury. They need observability to detect and fix performance issues before they impact revenue.
How Quave Cloud Solves This:
- Infrastructure abstraction: We abstract away all cloud complexity so teams deploy faster and focus on core product development
- Zero DevOps overhead: Eliminate infrastructure management that distracts from growth objectives
- Faster time-to-market: Enable rapid feature deployment and client solutions without infrastructure delays
- Built-in scalability: Infrastructure that scales automatically with growth, handling usage spikes without manual intervention
- Proactive monitoring: Built-in observability detects issues before they impact customers, preventing churn
- No roadmap disruption: Zero-downtime migrations and optimizations that don't require stopping product development
3. VC Track, Investment Readiness & Access to Senior Infrastructure Expertise
ICP Characteristic: VC-backed companies are on a venture capital track and want to continue raising investment (Series A, B, C). They need infrastructure that makes them attractive to investors and doesn't create red flags during due diligence. Being on the VC track and ready for investment demands that companies make correct decisions to avoid investor red flags later, to avoid problems during due diligence when raising funding or during M&A. These companies are focused on product development and customer acquisition. They may have a CTO focused on product, UX, or application development, but don't yet have senior DevOps engineers who can guide infrastructure decisions for their next growth phase.
The Problem: To raise Series B/C, companies need infrastructure expertise and know-how to make the right decisions from the start. Poor infrastructure decisions create red flags that investors see during due diligence: vendor lock-in, lack of scalability, hidden costs, technical debt, using tools the team already knows without considering future trade-offs. These issues reduce company valuation or can even kill deals. Companies need infrastructure that supports growth through Series B/C and beyond, not infrastructure that becomes a barrier. It's extremely expensive—and often not yet necessary—to hire senior DevOps engineers who know multiple cloud providers deeply, understand scalability patterns from experience, can provide strategic infrastructure advice, and have seen what works across hundreds of companies. Even if you could afford it, you'd need multiple specialists.
How Quave Cloud Solves This:
- Access to senior infrastructure expertise (included): Direct access to our entire team of infrastructure experts—former CEO of a public cloud company, founders who've scaled companies, 15+ years experience, 1,000+ projects seen. Strategic DevOps counseling included with any product offering—this isn't just support, it's strategic infrastructure guidance from people who've been where you're going
- Strategic infrastructure guidance from investor perspective (included): Our team includes investors who've evaluated infrastructure from a funding perspective and conducted technology due diligence. We know what investors look for and what they run away from
- Build foundation from day one: Infrastructure that scales through Series A, B, C, and beyond—no expensive refactoring later
- Avoid infrastructure red flags: Provider portability, predictable costs, solid foundation, scalability built-in, no hidden costs—all green flags that make companies attractive to investors
- Proven track record: We've helped companies from AI companies in Silicon Valley to bootstrapped startups from London—demonstrating our ability to help a wide range of startups with different demands that investors will eventually evaluate. We've helped companies raise different funding rounds
- M&A readiness: Infrastructure decisions that make companies attractive acquisition targets, not problematic. We've been on both sides of M&A transactions and understand what makes infrastructure attractive or problematic
- Multi-cloud expertise: People who think cloud-agnostically and align with what's best for your company now and in future growth phases
- Hands-on guidance: Curious, nerdy team members who love solving problems and building tailor-made solutions
- Foundation building: Build the right infrastructure foundation from day one, so when you're ready to bring DevOps in-house, you're building on solid ground
📍 ICP 1: Sales Points & Urgency Creation
🎯 Best Case: Close Before Committing to Proprietary Solutions (Ideal Timing)
The Opportunity: Companies have received or are about to receive cloud credits, or credits have just been announced. The ideal moment to close is before the company has committed heavily to proprietary solutions from a specific cloud provider—before infrastructure becomes deeply entangled with proprietary services. If we catch them early, before infrastructure is heavily committed to proprietary cloud solutions, it's still very resolvable. The company may have already received credits or be about to receive them, or credits may have just been announced, but they haven't locked themselves into any cloud provider solution yet.
What Happens If They Close With Us:
- Optimized infrastructure from day one: We help them build optimized infrastructure from the start—right-sized resources, proper customization, and efficient architecture. Credits last longer, and when credits expire, they have a solid, cost-effective foundation
- Born with scalable infrastructure: Infrastructure that scales from day one, supporting Series A, B, C, and beyond
- Better investor evaluation: Infrastructure green flags (portability, scalability, predictable costs) make them more attractive to investors
- Continue raising investment: Solid foundation enables continued funding rounds without infrastructure red flags
- Optimized credit consumption: Credits last 30-50% longer through intelligent resource management
- Maintain portability: Can chase new credits across providers without vendor lock-in
Sales Argument: "You've received cloud credits or are about to receive them. This is the moment to build infrastructure right from the start—before you commit to proprietary solutions that will lock you in. If you build on proprietary services now, you'll be locked in when credits expire. With Quave Cloud, you optimize credits, maintain portability, and build a foundation that makes you attractive to investors. The key is to show the future benefit clearly."
⚠️ Critical Moment: They Have Credits But Haven't Optimized
The Opportunity: Company has active cloud credits but hasn't optimized infrastructure. Credits are being consumed inefficiently, and vendor lock-in is building.
What Happens If They DON'T Close With Us:
- Credits expire faster: Without optimization, credits are consumed inefficiently, expiring sooner than necessary
- Vendor lock-in builds: Infrastructure becomes deeply integrated with one provider, making migration difficult
- High bills after credits expire: When credits run out, they face unexpectedly high bills with no flexibility to move
- Can't chase new credits: Even if they receive credits from another provider, migration is too complex and costly
- Stuck with expensive provider: End up spending heavily on the original provider long after credits expire
What Happens If They Close With Us:
- Credits last longer: Optimization makes credits last 30-50% longer
- Maintain portability: Can migrate to chase new credits when opportunities arise
- Avoid vendor lock-in: Platform abstraction keeps them portable even as they use credits
- Predictable costs: Transparent pricing after credits expire, with ability to migrate strategically
Sales Argument: "Your credits are active right now, but they're being consumed inefficiently. Every day you wait, vendor lock-in builds. If you optimize now with Quave Cloud, your credits last longer, you maintain portability, and you avoid the trap of being locked in when credits expire."
🚨 Urgent: Credits Are Expiring or Just Expired
The Opportunity: Company's cloud credits are about to expire or have just expired. They're facing high bills and realizing they're locked in.
What Happens If They DON'T Close With Us:
- High bills hit immediately: When credits expire, bills spike unexpectedly
- Vendor lock-in prevents migration: Even if they want to move to another provider with new credits, migration is too complex
- Forced to stay with expensive provider: No choice but to pay high bills on the original provider
- Roadmap disruption: If they try to migrate anyway, it takes 3+ months, disrupting product development
- Investor red flags: High infrastructure costs and vendor lock-in become red flags in future funding rounds
What Happens If They Close With Us:
- Zero-downtime migration: We migrate them to a more cost-effective provider or optimize existing infrastructure without disrupting roadmap
- Up to 50% cost reduction: Through optimization or strategic migration
- Regain portability: Break vendor lock-in and become portable again
- Predictable costs: Transparent pricing going forward
- No roadmap disruption: Zero-downtime migrations mean product development continues
Sales Argument: "Your credits just expired and bills are high. You're locked in, but it's not too late. We can migrate you with zero downtime, reduce costs by up to 50%, and break the vendor lock-in. If you wait longer, migration becomes harder and costs keep rising."
🚨 Urgent: Credits Expired & Company Decided to Migrate
The Opportunity: Company's credits have expired, and they've already decided they want to migrate to another provider. They're in the migration process and talking with other companies. This scenario is very similar to when credits are expiring, but the company has already made the decision to leave.
What Happens If They DON'T Close With Us:
- Complex migration process: Without expert guidance, migration becomes risky and time-consuming
- Poor provider selection: May choose a provider without understanding costs, credits, or long-term implications
- Missed credit opportunities: May not negotiate the best credit deals or understand which provider offers the best conditions
- Migration delays: Without proper planning, migration takes longer and disrupts business
What Happens If They Close With Us:
- Expert migration support: We help with the entire migration process, making it smooth and efficient
- Strategic provider decision: We help them decide where to go to get more credits, understand exactly how much they'll spend on infrastructure with different providers, and make informed decisions
- Credit negotiation support: As Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) partners, we can help companies negotiate with OCI and get good conditions. We can also help with other clouds, even if we're not direct partners—we can help them take the decision of where to go
- Zero-downtime migration: Our proprietary tooling enables seamless transitions without disrupting business
- Cost transparency: Clear understanding of infrastructure costs across different providers before making the decision
Sales Argument: "Your credits expired and you've decided to migrate. You're in the migration process and talking with other companies. We can help you in this purchase moment—we're OCI partners and can help you negotiate with OCI for good conditions. We can also help with other clouds, even if we're not direct partners. We can help you decide where to go, get more credits, and understand exactly how much you'll spend on infrastructure with different providers. We can help in this decision and migration process, even for companies whose credits just expired and already decided they want to leave."
💡 Strategic Timing: Preparing for Next Funding Round, M&A, or Growth Phase
The Opportunity: Company is preparing for their next funding round (Series B/C), preparing to be sold (M&A ready), or entering a critical growth phase with expected increases in revenue, number of customers, or traffic. Companies that just raised a round also gain visibility, which can attract both more customers and more malicious access attempts—they need well-oriented infrastructure with proper security in this moment.
What Happens If They DON'T Close With Us:
- Infrastructure red flags in due diligence: Vendor lock-in, lack of scalability, hidden costs, technical debt—all reduce valuation or kill deals (for funding rounds or M&A)
- Lower company valuation: Poor infrastructure decisions directly reduce company valuation
- Deal-breakers: Infrastructure problems can prevent funding rounds from closing or make companies unattractive for acquisition
- Future cost explosions: What works now will explode in cost at Series B/C or during growth phase
- Growth phase failures: Infrastructure not ready for increased load, traffic, or visibility—leading to performance issues, downtime, or security vulnerabilities
- Security vulnerabilities: Increased visibility after raising funding attracts more malicious access attempts—companies need infrastructure with proper security orientation
What Happens If They Close With Us:
- Infrastructure green flags: Provider portability, predictable costs, solid foundation, scalability built-in—all make them attractive to investors and acquirers
- Higher valuation: Good infrastructure decisions support higher company valuation
- Deal enablers: Infrastructure becomes an asset, not a liability, in funding rounds and M&A
- Strategic guidance from investor perspective: Our team includes investors who've conducted due diligence—we know what investors look for
- M&A readiness: Infrastructure decisions that make companies attractive acquisition targets, not problematic
- Growth phase readiness: Infrastructure that scales seamlessly with increased revenue, customers, and traffic
- Security orientation: Well-oriented infrastructure with proper security measures for companies with increased visibility
Sales Argument: "You're preparing for your next funding round, preparing to be sold, or entering a critical growth phase. Investors and acquirers will conduct due diligence on your infrastructure. Right now, you may have red flags: vendor lock-in, lack of scalability, potential cost explosions. We can fix this before due diligence, turning infrastructure into a green flag that increases your valuation. Our team includes investors who've done due diligence—we know exactly what they look for. If you just raised a round and have increased visibility, you also need infrastructure with proper security orientation. We can help you be ready for this critical moment."
🔧 ICP 2: Companies with Critical Infrastructure Challenges
Companies experiencing critical infrastructure problems that are impacting their business operations, costs, and growth. These companies face one or more critical challenges: excessive cloud costs (83% of CIOs overspend—overspend means spending beyond planned budgets, often due to inefficient resource consumption or unused services—30% waste on unused resources), poor performance and lack of observability leading to silent customer churn (only 10% have full observability), or DevOps team overload with lack of strategic ownership and seniority.
ICP Characteristics, Pain Points & How Quave Cloud Solves Them
1. Cost Problems: Overspending & Budget Constraints
ICP Characteristic: Companies are spending more than they should or can afford on cloud infrastructure. 83% of CIOs overspend on cloud infrastructure (overspend means spending beyond planned budgets, often due to inefficient resource consumption, unused services, or lack of cost visibility), 30% of cloud budgets are wasted on unused or idle resources, and 94% of IT decision-makers struggle with cloud costs.
The Problem:
- Costs exceed budgets, straining financial resources—spending more than the company can afford or should be spending
- Lack of visibility into billing: Companies often can't understand their cloud bills—they don't know what they're spending on, whether resources are unused, or if they should be spending what they're spending. They lack awareness of the magnitude of their spending
- Unexpected cost spikes and budget overruns
- Wasted spending on unused or idle resources (30% of cloud budgets wasted)
- Companies often don't know how to optimize existing infrastructure
- No clear understanding of whether current spending levels are appropriate or excessive
How Quave Cloud Solves This:
- Up to 70% cost reduction with migration: If companies are willing to migrate to a more cost-effective cloud provider, we can achieve up to 70% cost reduction through strategic migration
- Up to 50% cost reduction without migration: If companies prefer to stay on their current provider, we can achieve up to 50% cost reduction through optimization of existing infrastructure (no migration required)
- Optimize on current provider: Move from AWS to AWS with Quave Cloud (or from GCP to GCP, Azure to Azure, etc.)—this is not a migration, it's installing Quave Cloud within the existing provider, which can still provide significant optimization and cost savings
- Reduce waste: Eliminate the 30% waste from unused or idle resources through intelligent resource management
- Cost visibility: Full visibility into cloud spending with proper cost allocation—understand exactly what you're spending on and why
- Predictable pricing: Transparent pricing with no surprise bills
2. Performance Problems & Lack of Observability: The Hidden Cost of Slow Systems
ICP Characteristic: Companies experience slow systems, frequent downtime, and service degradation. Only 10% of companies have full observability into their cloud environments. 40% cite lack of observability as a top challenge, and 78% detect cost changes too late.
The Problem:
- The hidden cost of slow systems: When a customer has to report an error in your system, or when you discover through a customer that your system is down, it means the problem has already happened many times, has already impacted performance significantly, and you won't even be able to estimate the cost of how much revenue you've lost, how much this has become churn, how many customers have stopped using or stopped contracting your solution because of this problem. This is almost a "slow death" of having a slow system
- Silent customer churn: Customers often don't complain that the system is slow—they simply stop using it, stop contracting, or leave. This is a silent business loss because the customer won't tell you the system is slow, but they'll stop using it or leave
- Slow systems impacting user experience and revenue
- Frequent downtime and service interruptions
- Losing clients due to poor performance without even knowing it
- Performance bottlenecks that go undetected
- No proactive monitoring: Discover problems only when customers report them—reactive rather than proactive management
- No visibility into system health and performance
- Can't identify performance bottlenecks before they impact users
- Lack of real-time monitoring means issues go undetected
- Constant infrastructure issues requiring attention, optimization, and dealing with outages—this hidden cost of always having to look at infrastructure, optimize, deal with downtime, etc.
How Quave Cloud Solves This:
- Built-in observability out of the box: Comprehensive Grafana dashboards and Prometheus metrics automatically available from first deploy—no setup required
- Proactive issue detection: Identify problems before customers report them, not after—see problems before customers experience them
- Real-time monitoring: Monitor apps, databases, and network traffic in real-time
- Performance optimization: Optimize workloads, hosting, and resource allocation for better performance
- Reduced downtime: Better infrastructure management leads to fewer outages and service interruptions
- Automatic scaling: Ensures performance under load without manual intervention
- Full visibility: Status and health visibility into entire system—know what's happening before it impacts customers
3. DevOps Team Overload: No Time, Expertise, or Strategic Ownership
ICP Characteristic: DevOps teams are overwhelmed with infrastructure management tasks, or companies lack internal expertise for cloud migration, optimization, or implementing proper observability. Even when companies have someone in infrastructure, they often lack someone with the ownership and seniority to be proactive and worry about doing things before problems happen—not just someone who puts out fires, but someone who provides long-term infrastructure direction.
The Problem:
- DevOps team overloaded with infrastructure management, preventing focus on optimization
- Lack of strategic ownership: Even when there's someone in infrastructure, there's often no one with the ownership and seniority to be proactive—someone who provides long-term infrastructure direction, not just someone who puts out fires
- Team turnover or absence: The team may have left, or there's no one available, or the person available is an executor without understanding of the big picture
- Lack of internal expertise for cloud migration
- No one understands new cloud providers they want to migrate to
- No one understands old services they currently have
- Need external support but don't know where to get it
How Quave Cloud Solves This:
- Platform + Services: Complete infrastructure solution with both Quave Cloud platform and DevOps services
- We become your infrastructure partner: Handle migration, optimization, deployment, and ongoing infrastructure management
- Expert team with strategic ownership: 15+ years cloud infrastructure experience, including former CEO of a cloud company from the US—someone who provides proactive, long-term infrastructure direction, not just reactive firefighting
- Fast human support: Completely human, fast responses (not bots) in Portuguese and English
- Comprehensive expertise: Help with code questions, DevOps questions, infrastructure questions, and strategic cloud decisions
- Zero-downtime migrations: Our DevOps team handles entire migration process without disrupting your business
📍 ICP 2: Sales Points & Urgency Creation
🚨 Urgent: Cost Problems Are Impacting Business
The Opportunity: Company is overspending on cloud infrastructure (83% of CIOs overspend—overspend means spending beyond planned budgets, often due to inefficient resource consumption or unused services—30% waste on unused resources). Costs exceed budgets, straining financial resources. The company is spending too much, it's unsustainable, spending more than it should, has no idea how much it should be spending. This is a serious financial problem when cloud is already too expensive for the company. The company thinks it shouldn't be spending all this, it's out of control.
What Happens If They DON'T Close With Us:
- Costs keep rising: Without optimization, waste continues and costs keep increasing
- Budget constraints worsen: Financial resources become more strained—spending is unsustainable
- Can't invest in growth: Money wasted on infrastructure could be invested in product development
- Hidden costs emerge: Unexpected cost spikes continue to surprise
- No cost visibility: Continue without understanding what they're spending on or if resources are unused
What Happens If They Close With Us:
- Up to 70% cost reduction with migration: If the company is willing to migrate to a more cost-effective cloud provider, we can achieve up to 70% cost reduction
- Up to 50% cost reduction without migration: If the company prefers to stay on their current provider, we can achieve up to 50% cost reduction through optimization (no migration required)
- Optimize on current provider: Move from AWS to AWS with Quave Cloud (or from GCP to GCP, Azure to Azure, etc.)—this is not a migration, it's installing Quave Cloud within the existing provider, which can still provide significant optimization
- Eliminate waste: Remove the 30% waste from unused or idle resources
- Predictable pricing: Transparent costs with no surprise bills
- Cost visibility: Full visibility into where costs are going—understand exactly what you're spending on and why
Sales Argument: "You're overspending on cloud—83% of CIOs do. Right now, 30% of your budget is wasted on unused resources. You're spending too much, it's unsustainable, and you have no idea how much you should be spending. If you're willing to migrate, we can reduce costs by up to 70%. If you prefer to stay on your current provider, we can still reduce costs by up to 50% just by optimizing. Every month you wait, you're throwing money away that could be invested in growth."
🚨 Urgent: Losing Customers Due to Slow Systems and Downtime
The Opportunity: Company experiences slow systems, frequent downtime, and is losing clients. When a customer has to report an error in your system, or when you discover through a customer that your system is down, it means the problem has already happened many times, has already impacted performance significantly, and you won't even be able to estimate the cost of how much revenue you've lost, how much this has become churn, how many customers have stopped using or stopped contracting your solution because of this problem. This is almost a "slow death" of having a slow system. Customers often don't complain that the system is slow—they simply stop using it, stop contracting, or leave. This is a silent business loss.
What Happens If They DON'T Close With Us:
- Silent customer churn continues: Customers stop using the system or leave without complaining—you lose customers without even knowing why
- Revenue loss: Can't estimate how much revenue is lost, how much churn is caused, how many customers stop contracting because of performance issues
- Performance degrades further: Without proper monitoring, bottlenecks go undetected
- Reactive management: Only discover problems when customers complain—by then, the damage is already done
- Constant infrastructure issues: Always having to look at infrastructure, optimize, deal with downtime—this hidden cost continues
What Happens If They Close With Us:
- Observability out of the box: Comprehensive monitoring automatically available from first deploy—no setup required
- Proactive issue detection: Identify problems before customers report them—see problems before customers experience them
- Performance optimization: Optimize workloads and resource allocation for better performance
- Reduced downtime: Better infrastructure management leads to fewer outages
- Automatic scaling: Performance under load without manual intervention
- Stop the silent death: Prevent customers from leaving silently by detecting and fixing issues before they impact users
Sales Argument: "You're losing customers to slow systems and downtime, but you don't even know how many. When a customer has to report an error, it means the problem has already happened many times and impacted you significantly. Customers often don't complain—they just stop using your system or leave. This is a silent business loss. We give you observability out of the box—you'll see problems before customers do, and we'll optimize performance immediately to stop this silent customer churn."
🚨 Urgent: DevOps Team Needs Help or Is Missing
The Opportunity: DevOps team is overloaded with infrastructure management, or the team has left, or there's no one available, or the person available is an executor without understanding of the big picture. Even when there's someone in infrastructure, there's often no one with the ownership and seniority to be proactive and worry about doing things before problems happen—not just someone who puts out fires, but someone who provides long-term infrastructure direction.
What Happens If They DON'T Close With Us:
- Team continues to struggle: Overwhelmed team continues to struggle, or team has left leaving a gap
- No strategic direction: Even with someone in infrastructure, lack of ownership and seniority means no proactive, long-term infrastructure direction—only reactive firefighting
- No optimization: Infrastructure problems continue because team doesn't have time, expertise, or strategic vision
- Can't migrate: Even if they want to move to a better provider, they don't know how or don't have the expertise
- Strategic work blocked: Team can't focus on optimization or improvements
What Happens If They Close With Us:
- Platform + Services: Complete solution—we become your infrastructure partner
- Expert team handles everything: Migration, optimization, deployment, ongoing management
- Free up your team: Your DevOps team can focus on strategic work, not infrastructure management
- Strategic ownership: 15+ years experience, including former CEO of a cloud company from the US—someone who provides proactive, long-term infrastructure direction, not just reactive firefighting
- Fast human support: Immediate help with code, DevOps, infrastructure questions
Sales Argument: "Your DevOps team is overwhelmed, or has left, or you don't have someone with the ownership and seniority to provide long-term infrastructure direction.

⚡ ICP 3: Companies Using Meteor as a Development Framework
Companies building applications using the Meteor JavaScript framework. These companies range from small startups to large enterprises. Meteor applications use a unique architecture with DDP (Distributed Data Protocol), real-time data synchronization, isomorphic JavaScript, and integrated frontend/backend development. They primarily use MongoDB, require low-latency database connections, optimized network configurations, and infrastructure that supports WebSocket connections and DDP efficiently. Meteor applications have specific build processes, deployment requirements, and runtime needs that differ from standard Node.js applications—requiring infrastructure teams with Meteor-specific expertise.
ICP Characteristics, Pain Points & How Quave Cloud Solves Them
1. Meteor-Specific Infrastructure Expertise Gap
ICP Characteristic: Meteor applications require specialized infrastructure knowledge. Most cloud providers and DevOps teams don't understand Meteor's DDP protocol, real-time architecture, deployment patterns, or framework-specific optimizations.
The Problem:
- Generic cloud providers treat Meteor apps like standard Node.js apps, missing critical optimizations
- Infrastructure teams can't answer Meteor-specific questions about DDP, publications, methods, or real-time performance
- No strategic guidance on Meteor framework evolution, best practices, or architectural decisions
- Suboptimal deployments, performance issues, and higher costs due to lack of Meteor expertise
How Quave Cloud Solves This:

Core Value Proposition
🚀 ICP 1: For VC-Backed Growth Companies with Cloud Credits
You received cloud credits (AWS $100K, GCP $200K, Azure $150K, OCI $100K) and you're growing fast. But credits are a vendor lock-in trap—when they expire, you'll be stuck with an expensive provider, unable to "chase" new credits. And while credits are active, you're building oversized infrastructure that will explode in costs later.
The problem you recognize:
- Credits are a lock-in strategy: when they expire, you'll be locked to the provider
- You're spending credits inefficiently—building oversized infrastructure that works, but wastes credits
- When credits expire, the bill will be expensive and you won't be able to migrate to "chase" new credits
- You can't stop growth to deal with infrastructure—you need to focus on product and customers
- You don't have senior infrastructure expertise (CTO focused on product, not senior DevOps)
- Discovering problems through customers is devastating—you need proactive observability
How Quave Cloud solves this:
- Credit optimization from day 1: We build optimized infrastructure from the start—credits last 30-50% longer, and when they expire you'll have a solid, cost-effective foundation, not expensive oversized infrastructure
- Full portability: Migrate between AWS, GCP, Azure, and OCI without vendor lock-in—"chase" new credits when opportunities arise
- Zero DevOps overhead: We abstract away all complexity—your team focuses on features, not servers

- Proactive observability: Detect problems before customers—don't discover slowness through customer complaints
- Predictable costs: Transparent pricing after credits expire, no surprises
The result: You maximize credits, maintain portability to "chase" new credits, build a foundation that scales to Series B/C, and focus on growth without infrastructure distractions.
🔧 ICP 2: For Companies with Critical Infrastructure Challenges
You're overspending on cloud (83% of CIOs overspend, 30% of budget is waste), losing customers silently to slow systems (only 10% have full observability), and your DevOps team is overloaded or lacks strategic expertise. This is impacting your business right now.
The problem you recognize:
- Costs out of control: You're spending more than you should or can afford—83% of CIOs overspend, 30% is waste on unused resources
- You don't understand your bill: You don't know what you're spending on, if resources are idle, or if you should be spending that amount
- Silent customer loss: When a customer has to report an error, the problem has already happened many times and already impacted revenue significantly—you can't even estimate how much you've lost in silent churn
- Customers don't complain, they just leave: Customers stop using or cancel without complaining—it's a silent business loss
- No observability: You only discover problems when customers report them—no proactive visibility
- DevOps overloaded or absent: Your team is overloaded, has left, or doesn't have someone with ownership and seniority to be proactive—they only put out fires, don't have long-term strategic direction
How Quave Cloud solves this:
- Up to 70% cost reduction (with migration) or up to 50% (without migration): We optimize your current infrastructure or migrate to a more cost-effective provider—you choose

- Cost optimization with compliance: Get all benefits of platform automation while meeting strict compliance requirements and using your existing hardware investment
Best for advanced customers that need:
- Complete data sovereignty — all data, metadata, logs, and platform components stay on your infrastructure
- No external control-plane dependencies — even Quave Cloud's team cannot access your infrastructure
- Internal Development Platform model — you install, manage, and control the platform internally
- Air-gapped or highly secure environments that cannot allow external access
- Regulatory compliance requiring all infrastructure to run on-premise
- The same Quave Cloud developer experience, but hosted as your internal platform on your hardware
Important Considerations:
- Self-managed: You handle platform updates, maintenance, and operations
- Installation model: Quave Cloud is installed on your infrastructure and you manage it
- Limited Quave support access: Due to complete isolation, Quave Cloud team has no access for maintenance or updates
- Advanced use case: Recommended for organizations with specific compliance or security requirements that justify the additional management overhead
- Hardware requirements: Your infrastructure must meet minimum requirements for running Quave Cloud components
Multi-Cloud High Availability with Quave Cloud
Offering — Quave Cloud + Your Multi-Cloud Footprint
Slogan: True multi-cloud, near-zero downtime — without multi-cloud DevOps pain.
This offering is for enterprises that cannot afford a single-cloud failure. Your workloads run across two or more providers (for example, AWS + GCP, Azure + OCI), while Quave Cloud operates as the unified platform that keeps apps and databases ready to run in multiple regions and clouds at the same time.
What “multi-cloud high availability” means in practice
- Active standby across providers: Your primary workloads might run in AWS today, with warm replicas and incremental backups continuously synchronized into GCP (or another provider/region).
- RTO under 1 hour: In the event of a provider or region outage, Quave Cloud coordinates restore + cut-over so your applications and databases are running again in less than one hour, assuming connectivity to at least one secondary provider.
- One-click failover: Operators get a single “fail over now” action in Quave Cloud that:
- Promotes the secondary database replica to primary in the alternate cloud/region.
- Shifts app traffic by updating routes and redeploying apps on that target.
- Keeps observability and alerts consistent, so teams see the same dashboards pre/post-failover.
How this protects you from big-cloud outages
- Major cloud incidents (for example, historic AWS
us-east-1outages or regional Google Cloud networking failures) have taken down thousands of services at once and disrupted a measurable share of global internet traffic for hours. - Industry studies regularly estimate enterprise downtime costs from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of dollars per hour, depending on sector (finance, retail, SaaS, etc.).
- With Quave Cloud’s multi-cloud setup, a regional or even provider-wide incident becomes a controlled failover event rather than a complete outage:
- Databases: continuous, incremental backups and/or streaming replication into at least one other provider/region.
- Applications: always-deployable images and configuration ready in multiple targets (AWS, GCP, Azure, OCI), so the same stack can start serving traffic elsewhere quickly.
- DNS and routing: guidance and automation to switch customer-facing endpoints without requiring deep provider-specific runbooks.
Why this is easier than building multi-cloud yourself
- No need for a multi-cloud DevOps team: Instead of hiring or training engineers who know AWS, GCP, Azure, and OCI in depth, Quave Cloud abstracts provider differences (VMs, networking, storage, databases, identity) behind a single platform.
- Reduces DevOps overhead across all providers: Your team spends less time managing multi-cloud complexity, freeing up roadmap capacity for product features.
- Unified deployment model: One way to declare apps, jobs, databases, and backups — then target specific regions/providers from the same platform.
- Consistent observability and runbooks: Logs, metrics, dashboards, and alerting live in one place, regardless of which cloud is active at a given moment.
- Gradual adoption: Start with a single primary provider + one secondary (for example, AWS primary, GCP secondary), then add more providers/regions as business continuity requirements increase.
- Cost optimization across providers: Migrate databases from Atlas to any provider, optimize database hosting solutions, and reduce downtime costs — often saving 50%+ on database costs while avoiding extended outages.
Best for enterprises that need:
- Aggressive RTO/RPO across cloud providers (disaster recovery in under an hour, with recent data).
- Regulatory or board-level requirements to demonstrate resilience beyond a single hyperscaler.
- Cross-region and cross-provider strategies without ballooning internal DevOps complexity.
- A single partner (Quave Cloud) responsible for the operational choreography across multiple clouds.
- Cannot afford downtime — slow services or outages are unacceptable
- DevOps team is overloaded managing multi-cloud complexity
- Spending more than you should and need better cost optimization across providers
Key Features:
- Container-based deployment: Use pre-made Docker images, custom Dockerfiles, or Buildpacks across all providers
- Push to Deploy: Automatic deployments from GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket — works consistently across all clouds
- Database Setup: MongoDB, MySQL, PostgreSQL, Redis with cross-provider replication and backups
- Zero Downtime Deploys: Blue/green deployments with one-click rollback — works across all providers
- One-click Scaling: Scale resources instantly across any provider; autoscaling available
- Advanced Autoscaling (Custom): Entire infrastructure automatically scales across multiple providers based on demand
- Observability out of the box: Unified Grafana dashboards and Prometheus metrics automatically available from your first deploy across all providers — no setup, no configuration, no previous knowledge required. As soon as you deploy an app, observability is already working
- Encrypted Backups: Automatic, secure cross-provider backups that start working immediately — no setup required. As soon as you have data, backups are already running across all providers. Download and decrypt your own backups whenever needed
- One-click Failover: Single action to failover between providers with automatic database promotion and traffic routing
- User-friendly interface: Rollback button always available for last version/changes — automatically tracks every deployment and change across all clouds, ready to restore instantly with zero setup. Config history and secret encryption included — all out-of-the-box
- Fixed pricing: Monthly license fee based on resource usage — predictable costs regardless of provider mix
- Provider flexibility: Use any combination of AWS, GCP, Azure, OCI — keep existing credits and agreements
- Cost optimization: Direct billing to each provider using your special deals or credits
- Full DevOps: We handle all DevOps tasks, including multi-cloud migration and management
- Comprehensive support: Expert assistance in Portuguese and English, fast response times, human support for code and DevOps questions
- Customize your Infrastructure: We adapt to your multi-cloud needs — not a "one size fits all" provider

- Flexible engagement: Whether you need us to augment your existing team, fill specific expertise gaps, or take full responsibility for your DevOps operations, we adapt to your needs
Why This Beats Hiring Internally:
The Expertise Problem:
- Single engineer limitations: One DevOps employee typically knows one cloud provider well, but struggles with multi-cloud migrations, cost optimization across providers, or strategic infrastructure decisions
- Knowledge gaps: Your team might be great at AWS but lack GCP expertise needed for a migration, or understand deployments but struggle with performance tuning and cost optimization
- Experience ceiling: Junior teams often lack the experience to handle complex migrations, multi-cloud architectures, or strategic infrastructure planning that requires years of cloud company leadership experience
The Bandwidth Problem:
- Single point of failure: One DevOps engineer means vacations, sick days, and after-hours emergencies become critical bottlenecks
- Overwhelmed teams: Your team is already stretched thin managing day-to-day operations—they don't have capacity for migrations, optimizations, or strategic projects
- Limited availability: Your team works 9-5, but infrastructure issues don't respect business hours—emergencies happen nights, weekends, and holidays
The Cost Problem:
- Hiring is expensive: To match our subscription, you'd need to hire multiple specialists (AWS expert, GCP expert, senior architect, etc.)—costing $300K+ annually in salaries alone, plus benefits, recruiting, and onboarding
- Underutilization: You don't need a full-time AWS expert, GCP expert, and senior architect—you need them when specific problems arise
- Skill mismatch: You might hire someone for AWS expertise, but then need GCP knowledge for a migration—now you're stuck or need to hire again
How Our Subscription Model Solves This:

Pricing
Quave Cloud Platform Pricing — BYOP Standard Hosting Model
This pricing applies to the Quave Cloud Platform when deployed in the BYOP (Bring Your Own Provider) model with standard hosting. This includes all BYOP models (Quave Cloud + Your Provider Account (BYOP) — supports AWS, GCP, Azure, or OCI — and Your On-Premise or Bare-Metal Infrastructure + Quave Cloud Platform) when hosted in standard hosting model.
What is Standard Hosting Model? In standard hosting model, Quave Cloud provides full management and support. Our team can access the platform to provide maintenance, updates, and support services. Your apps and data run in your account or infrastructure, but the Quave Cloud platform allows us to manage and support your infrastructure effectively.
Pricing is based on resource usage (zClouds, memory, and vCPU). You pay a monthly license fee plus a one-time setup fee.
| Tier | up to zClouds | up to Mem GBs/vCPU | Monthly License | One-time Setup |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 50 | 25 | $400.00 | $750.00 |
| 2 | 200 | 100 | $700.00 | $2,000.00 |
| 3 | 500 | 250 | $1,300.00 | $5,000.00 |
| 4 | 1000 | 500 | $2,300.00 | $10,000.00 |
| 5 | 2000 | 1000 | $4,300.00 | $20,000.00 |
| 6 | 5000 | 2500 | $10,300.00 | $50,000.00 |
Quave Cloud Platform Pricing — BYOP Fully Private Environment
This pricing applies to the Quave Cloud Platform when deployed in the BYOP (Bring Your Own Provider) model with fully private environment hosting. This hosting model is analogous to an Internal Development Platform (IDP) at the hosting and isolation level, designed for organizations with strict compliance, regulatory, or security requirements.
What is a Fully Private Environment? In a fully private environment, everything runs entirely within your account or infrastructure with complete isolation—no external access whatsoever. This includes:
- All Quave Cloud components (platform, platform interface, logs, metrics, dashboards)
- All data and applications
- Complete network isolation
Key Difference: Even the Quave Cloud team cannot access your environment for maintenance or updates. You manage all platform updates, maintenance, and operations internally. This hosting model is ideal for organizations with strict regulatory requirements (such as fintech, healthcare, or government sectors) that need complete data sovereignty and cannot allow any external access, even from the platform provider. At the hosting and isolation level, this model is analogous to an Internal Development Platform (IDP) approach.
Why the Higher Pricing? The higher pricing reflects the significant complexity and effort required to deliver a fully isolated, customized platform environment. This includes:
- Complete Customization & Complex Setup: Building a fully customized platform installation that is completely isolated for each client, requiring a sophisticated setup process that ensures total isolation of the environment
- High Security Isolation: Establishing multiple layers of security isolation to maintain the fully private nature of the environment
- Maintenance & Support Complexity: Performing maintenance, installing improvements, and providing support while maintaining complete isolation requires specialized processes. To provide support, answer questions, and make necessary adjustments, we require temporary, restricted access with multiple security layers—accessing only essential logs and systems needed to deliver service, then removing our access to restore the fully private state. The continuous management of this isolated environment requires significantly more effort than standard deployments
This model demands extensive upfront setup, ongoing operational complexity, and specialized support processes to maintain the fully private environment while still delivering Quave Cloud's value and support.
| Tier | up to zClouds | up to Mem GBs/vCPU | Monthly License | One-time Setup |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 50 | 25 | $800.00 | $1,500.00 |
| 2 | 200 | 100 | $1,400.00 | $6,000.00 |
| 3 | 500 | 250 | $2,600.00 | $15,000.00 |
| 4 | 1000 | 500 | $4,600.00 | $30,000.00 |
| 5 | 2000 | 1000 | $8,600.00 | $60,000.00 |
| 6 | 5000 | 2500 | $20,600.00 | $150,000.00 |
DevOps Subscription
DevOps Subscription provides access to our team of DevOps professionals who work directly on your infrastructure challenges. We take ownership of your DevOps problems and work through them one request at a time, starting with your biggest pain point and moving to the next. This is a monthly subscription service that can be used independently or in combination with any of our platform offerings.
Pricing Tiers:
Monthly subscriptions starting at $3,000/month, with tiers available at $5,000/month, $8,000/month, and $13,000/month, depending on your level of engagement and DevOps needs.
How We Determine Your Tier:
During our initial conversation, we assess your specific requirements:
- Level of engagement needed—how much DevOps work you have and how quickly you need progress
- Complexity of your infrastructure—the scale and complexity of challenges we'll be working on
- Scope of DevOps ownership—whether you need us to augment your team, fill expertise gaps, or take full DevOps responsibility
- Frequency of challenges—how often you expect to have new DevOps problems to solve
Based on this assessment, we recommend an appropriate subscription tier. The subscription fee can be adjusted over time as your needs evolve. This isn't about hours or time limits—it's about the level of engagement and the complexity of work we'll be handling.
One Request at a Time:
Regardless of your tier, we work on your DevOps challenges one request at a time:
- We identify your biggest DevOps problem and focus all attention on solving it completely
- Once resolved, we move to your next priority
- This ensures focused value delivery and visible progress, regardless of subscription tier
Higher tiers typically mean:
- More complex challenges can be handled
- Faster turnaround on requests
- More simultaneous expertise available when needed
- Higher level of engagement and availability
Pause Anytime:
Like Designjoy, you can pause your subscription when you don't have enough DevOps work to fill a month. Perhaps you only have one or two DevOps challenges at the moment, or you've resolved your critical issues and want to pause until new challenges arise.
How pausing works:
- Billing cycles are based on a monthly period
- If you sign up and use the service for part of a month, then decide to pause, the billing cycle will be paused
- You'll have the remainder of your paid service available to use anytime in the future
- Resume when you have new DevOps challenges to tackle
This flexibility ensures you're not paying for a subscription when you don't have active DevOps work, while still maintaining access to our team when you need it.
One-Month Engagement Option:
While we typically establish 6 or 12-month contracts for DevOps Subscription, we understand that for new customers, it's important to build mutual understanding before committing to a longer-term engagement.
For new customers, we sometimes offer a one-month paid contract that allows us to:
- Get to know your infrastructure and specific needs better
- Conduct a more accurate assessment of your requirements
- Determine the most appropriate subscription tier and pricing for your situation
- Build a working relationship and demonstrate our value
- Understand your DevOps pain points and how we can best address them
- Show you how the "one request at a time" model works in practice
After this initial one-month engagement, we can adjust the subscription tier, pricing, or engagement model to better align with your ongoing requirements and ensure we're working together effectively.

Concepts
Core concepts for selling Quave Cloud — must-know fundamentals:
TCO (Total Cost of Ownership): Full lifetime cost of infrastructure (hardware, cloud, DevOps time, downtime, overhead). Quave reduces TCO by replacing expensive managed services, eliminating DevOps load, and creating portability.
BYOP (Bring Your Own Provider): Client keeps existing cloud provider (AWS, GCP, Azure, OCI), Quave delivers platform abstraction on top. Zero migration, preserves credits, avoids lock-in, reduces costs.
Cloud Portability: Ability to move workloads between providers without rewriting apps or rebuilding infrastructure. Prevents vendor lock-in, makes outages/price hikes survivable. Deep dive
Platform vs. Infrastructure: Platform orchestrates deployments, scaling, monitoring, backups. Infrastructure is where workloads/data run. Quave can run the platform or move it into private environment based on privacy/compliance needs. Deep dive
High Availability (HA): Running multiple replicas to avoid downtime during failures. Quave automatically distributes workloads across nodes/VMs for resilience.
Zero-Downtime Migration: Transitioning workloads/databases without disrupting traffic. Eliminates biggest fear of cloud changes. Quave has proprietary tooling for real-time data replication with rollback. Deep dive
Cost Overhead of Managed Services: Extra costs for fully managed compute layers and abstractions on top of base VMs/containers. Quave reduces dependence on these layers, uses underlying compute more efficiently. Deep dive
Observability (Metrics, Logs, Tracing): Ability to understand system behavior end-to-end. Quave bundles metrics, logs, slow-query analysis, dashboards—no assembly required. Deep dive
DevOps Load: Time, cost, effort to manage infrastructure, observability, scaling, backups, security patches, CI/CD. Quave removes 80%+ of this overhead. Deep dive
Vendor Lock-In: Organization becomes dependent on specific platform/provider, cannot easily migrate. Quave eliminates lock-in through portability, open standards, simplified migrations. Deep dive
Data Residency & Compliance: Rules requiring data stored in specific regions/under specific controls. Quave supports shared, BYOP, and private control-plane models to match any compliance requirement. Deep dive

🛠️ DevOps Subscription — Frequently Asked Questions
"How does the 'one request at a time' model work?" We work on your biggest DevOps problem first. Once that's completely resolved, we move to your next priority. This ensures focused attention and visible progress on what matters most. You'll see continuous, cadenced progress as we work through challenges systematically.
"Is there a limit to how many requests I can make?" No. Once subscribed, you can add as many DevOps challenges to your queue as you'd like, and we'll work through them one by one, starting with your biggest pain point.
"How do you prioritize which problem to work on first?" We work with you to identify and prioritize your DevOps challenges. Typically, we start with what's causing the most pain, cost, or risk—whether that's a migration blocking growth, cost optimization to reduce spending, performance issues causing customer churn, or security hardening for compliance.
"What if I only have one DevOps challenge right now?" That's fine. You can pause your subscription when finished and return when you have additional DevOps needs. There's no need to let the remainder of your subscription go to waste.
"How does pausing work?" Billing cycles are based on a monthly period. If you sign up and use the service for part of a month, then decide to pause, the billing cycle will be paused and you'll have the remainder of your paid service available to use anytime in the future. Resume when you have new DevOps challenges to tackle.
"Do you track hours or time limits?" No. This isn't about hours or time limits—it's about delivering value. We work on your infrastructure challenges until they're resolved, then move to the next. We focus on outcomes, not time spent.
"What if I don't like the solution or need revisions?" No worries! We'll continue to revise and improve until you're 100% satisfied. The goal is to resolve your DevOps challenge completely before moving to the next.
"How do you handle larger requests like full migrations?" Larger requests are broken down into manageable pieces. For example, a full-scale migration or infrastructure overhaul will be delivered in reasonable increments every few days until the entire request is complete. You'll see continuous progress throughout.
"Can I use DevOps Subscription for just a month?" For sure. Whether you need DevOps Subscription for a month or a year, the choice is yours. Just feel free to come back when you have additional DevOps needs.
"What if I have an emergency while you're working on another request?" We can reprioritize for true emergencies. Critical issues that are blocking your business can be elevated to the top of the queue. We work with you to understand what's truly urgent vs. what can wait.
"How do I request DevOps work?" You can request DevOps work through our platform, email, Slack, or any communication channel that works for you. We're flexible—if it can be shared with us, it's fair game. Some clients prefer written briefs, others prefer quick calls or screen shares.
General Questions
"Will I lose Charts/Search from Atlas?" No. Charts → Metabase. Search → Elastic or Typesense with equivalent API.
"Self-hosting seems difficult." We handle all of it: hardening, upgrades, restore flows, observability, security. You focus on product.
"I have very sensitive data." Run inside your VPC with audited, just-in-time access. For strict compliance, can use Percona for encrypted-at-rest databases.
"What if something breaks?" Battle-tested playbooks, strict SLOs, prepared rollback strategy. Zero-downtime migration avoids outage risks.
"Does Quave protect me from cloud outages?" Yes. Apps: easy failover (DNS switch + redeploy). Databases: incremental backups + HA replicas. For maximum resilience: live replicas in multiple clouds.

The Difference vs. AWS, Oracle, or Other Cloud Providers:
When you use AWS, Oracle, or other major cloud providers, you don't get access to people who understand multiple clouds, have been CEO of a cloud company, have seen 1,000+ projects, or provide strategic guidance aligned with your company's best interests. You get support, but not strategic infrastructure counseling from people who've scaled businesses.
Strategic Infrastructure Guidance from Investor & M&A Perspective (Included):
The Hidden Problem You're Facing:
You're focused on product, customers, and growth—but infrastructure decisions you make today will impact:
- Your ability to raise Series B/C—investors conduct due diligence and infrastructure red flags can kill deals
- Your company valuation—technical debt and vendor lock-in reduce valuation
- Your acquisition attractiveness—acquirers evaluate infrastructure, and poor decisions make you less attractive

Fix Your Infrastructure. Reduce Costs. Get Observability. Free Your Team.
Subheadline:
Quave Cloud solves critical infrastructure problems that are hurting your business: excessive costs, poor performance and lack of observability leading to silent customer churn, and DevOps teams without strategic ownership.

Problem Statement
Is your infrastructure holding your business back?
94% of IT decision-makers struggle with cloud costs. Companies with critical infrastructure challenges face:
- Cost problems: 83% of CIOs overspend (overspend means spending beyond planned budgets, often due to inefficient resource consumption or unused services), 30% waste on unused resources. Companies can't understand their cloud bills—they don't know what they're spending on, whether resources are unused, or if they should be spending what they're spending
- Performance & Observability problems: Slow systems, downtime, losing customers silently. Only 10% have full observability—you discover issues when customers complain. When a customer has to report an error, it means the problem has already happened many times and impacted you significantly. Customers often don't complain—they just stop using your system or leave. This is a silent business loss
- Team problems: DevOps overloaded, or team has left, or no one with ownership and seniority to provide long-term infrastructure direction—not just someone who puts out fires, but someone who is proactive
The hidden costs: The hidden cost of always having to look at infrastructure, optimize, deal with downtime. When systems are slow, you can't estimate how much revenue you've lost, how much churn is caused, how many customers have stopped using or stopped contracting your solution. This is almost a "slow death" of having a slow system.
