How does

Stacklet

compare?

Stacklet started life as a homegrown solution to manage ESW Capitals’ growing AWS cloud spend, and focused solely on automating cost optimizations that are low / medium risk via governance policy rules. They lack any support for the essential cost visibility and advanced AI/ML cost optimization engine that customers can get with Harness.
