Anomaly Detection

Spot what matters before it costs you

North.Cloud’s Anomaly Detection monitors your cloud in real time, flags spend spikes and usage outliers instantly, and tells you what changed—no digging required.

Trusted by leading FinOps and engineering teams

Surface cost anomalies with precision

North.Cloud detects unexpected spend spikes and dips at the resource level, not just service or account.

Get started
Root cause, surfaced

Understand why an anomaly was triggered, including usage group, spike frequency, confidence level, and how it compares to historical baselines.

Granular enough for real triage

Every alert includes the exact resource ID or usage type so you can jump straight to the root cause without console digging.

Pattern-aware detection

North.Cloud compares usage to historical patterns to filter out scheduled or expected spikes and reduce alert fatigue without missing real issues.

Custom thresholds with real context

Set thresholds that match your infrastructure. Flag deltas above $100, 50%, or customize by linked account.

Do more with less infrastructure

Anomalies are only useful if your team can act on them. North provides the signal, context, and collaboration path.

Get started
Search and filter instantly

Look up any anomaly by service, account, or resource ID. Filter by date, severity, or linked account.

Review historical alerts with ease

See every anomaly from the past 90 days, even the ones you’ve already resolved. Great for audits or trend analysis

Train the model as you go

Resolve or ignore directly in the app. Every interaction helps North tune future detection logic without requiring retraining or config updates.

Integrated with your workflow

Pipe alerts directly to Slack, Jira, or email with full context and resource metadata included. Triage with less friction and no duplicate logging.

FAQs

Find answers to commonly asked questions about our product and services.

How does North.Cloud work?

Within a few minutes north connects to your cloud stack (AWS or GCP) and begins to analyze how best to optimize your cloud spend. Once turned on North can automate commitment coverage using decentralized liquid commitments via Arctic, the industry's first liquid cloud commitment service. 

Can I just buy commitments directly from the cloud provider?

Yes, but those commitments are liabilities for your business, and cannot be changed if your cloud usage or business changes. With North you get the 3 year pricing you want, but with on-demand like flexibility.

Is North.Cloud an AWS or GCP reseller?

No. North doesn’t resell cloud infrastructure. We integrate with your existing AWS and GCP accounts to give you better visibility, control, and automation—without altering how you buy cloud.

What happens if my usage changes and my commitments no longer are needed?

North.Cloud breaks your commitments into small, modular chunks, similar to nodes in a network. This lets us adjust coverage one piece at a time. So if a portion of your usage drops, we can instantly dial your commitment down—almost like a load balancer, but for cloud savings.

We have an enterprise pricing agreement with our cloud provider. Does this work on top of those?

Yes, most of our customers have EDPs or ELAs with their cloud provider. North.Cloud is compliant to those programs. 

We have seen other AWS RI marketplace brokers, is this similar? 

We are not an RI broker, nor do we rely on a 3rd party secondaries marketplace for commitment agility. North.Cloud’s commitments are fully owned by our customers, and load balanced by our software at the time of a change need.
