Question 1

Why hire a DevOps expert instead of using AI tools like ChatGPT?

Accepted Answer

AI tools generate generic configurations but cannot account for your business's budget constraints, compliance needs, or growth trajectory. A DevOps expert like Clottis designs infrastructure specific to your context — and optimizes it to save 40-60% on cloud costs.

Question 2

Does Clottis work with small budgets, startups, or freelancers?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Clottis works with teams of all sizes — from solo freelancers and small agencies with minimal projects to large enterprises. We have a Starter package for small-to-medium projects and offer custom pricing based on project complexity and scope.

Question 3

Which cloud platforms does Clottis specialize in?

Accepted Answer

Clottis specializes in AWS (Amazon Web Services), Tencent Cloud, Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI), Docker/Kubernetes, and GitHub Actions for CI/CD. We select the best platform based on your project's cost, performance, and regional requirements.

Question 4

Can Clottis help with AI model deployment?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Clottis provides end-to-end AI model deployment services — from containerizing your model to setting up scalable inference infrastructure on AWS, Oracle Cloud, or Tencent Cloud.

Question 5

How much can Clottis reduce my cloud bill?

Accepted Answer

Clients typically see 40-60% reduction in cloud costs through right-sizing, eliminating unused resources, scheduling dev environments, and using reserved/spot instances strategically. One client reduced their monthly AWS bill from $4,200 to $1,600.

Question 6

How long does a DevOps setup take?

Accepted Answer

A Starter package typically takes 1-2 weeks. A Professional multi-environment setup (Dev, Staging, Production) takes 2-4 weeks. Enterprise or custom engagements are scoped after a discovery call. Book a free consultation to get a precise estimate.
