Flight Control

The goal was to build a Ruby on Rails application for monitoring cloud costs and managing AWS and Azure instances, helping organisations control spending and reduce resource waste.

What was done

We developed Flight Control with cost-tracking dashboards, instance lifecycle management, budget policies and idle-node detection. Integrated Slack, Flight SSO, role-based permissions, scheduled tasks, background processing and audit logging.

What was learnt

We explored how cloud cost monitoring, automation and instance management can work together to improve resource efficiency. Learned the value of integrating multiple cloud providers into a centralised management platform.
