to your stack & domain
Profile and reduce excessive memory and CPU usage that drives instability, cost, or latency in a defined service.
How this operator works
every way of working, already decidedOwns the system, not the ticket
Takes end-to-end ownership of a service or surface. Design, delivery, on-call. And is measured on outcomes, not hours.
Embedded, async-first, instrumented
Works inside your repos, your CI and your rituals. Daily written standups, decisions logged. No status-meeting tax.
Runbooks, canaries, reversible deploys
Every change gated and reversible. Incidents get a timeline and a postmortem; nothing ships without a rollback.
Plugged into your Slack & rituals
Joins standups and retros, reports weekly against the goal. You get an operator, not a queue.
Brings a pre-wired stack or adopts yours
Infrastructure and observability as code by default. No bespoke setup tax to absorb.
Scoped, gated, reversible
Week-1 shadow, week-2 ownership, swap on request inside the trial window. No long-tail handover risk.
Overview
A service that eats memory or CPU pays three times: in instability — OOM kills, GC pauses, throttling — in latency, and in the infrastructure bill. This sprint profiles a defined service under production conditions and fixes the allocation patterns, leaks, and hot paths that the data ranks highest.
With usage reduced, the sprint right-sizes the deployment — instance sizes, container limits, autoscaling thresholds — so the savings land in the bill and the headroom is real. The finish state: the service running inside an agreed resource budget, with profiles, dashboards, and alerts to keep it there.
What's included
Production profiling
CPU and memory profiled under production conditions — allocation churn, GC behavior, hot paths — so fixes chase evidence, not folklore.
Memory leak & allocation fixes
Leaks closed and allocation-heavy patterns rewritten, verified by profile before and after.
CPU hot-path optimization
The paths that burn the most cycles optimized in ranked order, with the wins measured under load.
Right-sizing & guardrails
Instance sizes, container limits, and autoscaling thresholds reset to the improved profile, with alerts holding the new budget.
How it works
- Scope. Profile CPU and memory under production conditions and set the resource budget.
- Build. Fix leaks, allocation churn, and hot paths; verify under load.
- Handover. Right-sized deployment, before/after report, and resource alerts.
Part of every Delivery Plan
The Application Memory & CPU Optimization is a menu item on the Scrums.com delivery catalog, available at every plan tier. Add it to your plan backlog and your delivery team schedules it like any other item — scoped, tracked, and reported through the SEOP. See Delivery Plan Tiers.
FAQs
Is this a general cloud cost review?
No. This sprint fixes one service's resource behavior at the code and configuration level. It often cuts that service's bill substantially, but fleet-wide cost work is a different exercise.
What do we need to provide?
Profiling access to production or a production-like environment, the repository, and a deploy path for the fixes.
How do we know it will not creep back?
Resource alerts fire when the service drifts from its budget, and the before/after profiles hand over as the reference. The Observability Watch menu item can keep managed eyes on those signals if you want them watched continuously.
