The Challenge

TradeLocker's rapid growth put immense pressure on infrastructure scaling. After moving from physical servers to AWS, the team had no visibility into cloud spend. Without a formal FinOps practice, they couldn't track resource consumption or optimize costs while maintaining zero downtime requirements for their trading platform.

The Solution

TradeLocker implemented DoiT Cloud Intelligence platform for daily spend monitoring, budgets, and alerts. DataHub aggregated costs across AWS, OpenAI, Jira, Slack, and other services into a single source of truth. This enabled engineering teams to take ownership of cloud usage and calculate previously unattainable cost-per-user metrics.

Results

  • Achieved proactive infrastructure intelligence with complete cost visibility across all cloud and SaaS tools
  • Unlocked cost-per-user calculations that became foundational for engineering and business decisions
  • Scaled infrastructure globally without downtime while maintaining cost efficiency and control

Meet TradeLocker

TradeLocker is a global Contract for Difference (CFD) trading platform that enables real-time access to Forex, indexes, metals, and international equities. Its infrastructure bridges brokers and financial markets, meaning uptime isn't just critical; it's non-negotiable. A single second of downtime can translate to missed trades and real financial loss for users across the globe.

DataHub Implementation

A major breakthrough came with the implementation of DataHub, DoiT's powerful feature for centralized cost intelligence. TradeLocker used DataHub to aggregate spend data across a wide array of tools, from AWS and OpenAI to Jira, Slack, and other essential services. This gave the team a single, unified source of truth for all cloud and SaaS-related expenses, eliminating silos and enabling a far more comprehensive understanding of their operational footprint.

Cost-Per-User Insights

With this visibility, TradeLocker was able to distinguish between direct and indirect costs and track how each one scaled with user growth. The team could finally calculate cost-per-user, a previously unattainable metric, which became foundational in how both engineering and business teams made decisions around infrastructure, pricing, and future growth strategies.

What they say

Promptly

DoiT was a true partner, not a vendor. They helped us understand the problem, refine the vision, and build something production-ready far faster than we could have on our own. Their expertise, responsiveness, and commitment made all the difference.

Dr. Anish Kapur, Founder & CEO, Promptly

Extenda Retail

DoiT's Customer Success and Forward Deployed Engineering teams work very closely with us. The regular sessions with our CSM keep us focused on the right priorities, and the FDEs provide the deep technical guidance we need to validate decisions and optimize our environment. That combination has been genuinely valuable for us.

Alexander Lundberg Santos, Platform Engineer at Extenda Retail

Monta

When we started working with DoiT, we deployed Flexsave to save time and reduce complexity. We still use it today. But what really stands out is the expert support. Having someone to collaborate with on deep cloud cost topics, someone who really understands the nuances, is incredibly valuable.

Jesper Terkelsen, CTO at Monta

Wicked Reports

DoiT's Cloud Accelerator turned our AI idea into a shipped product, saving at least three months of development and delivering reliable, explainable insights our customers trust.

Sentric Music

With maybe 5-10 minutes, Ava had guided me right down into the low-level detail of the services that we were running in our compute environment, named the exact instances that were starting to chew through our money, produced a report for me that showed that this was almost a direct correlation to the cost growth that we were seeing, which meant that we were able to get on top of it pretty much immediately.
