Keebo

Keebo is a sophisticated AI-powered platform dedicated to the optimization and governance of Snowflake and Databricks environments. Built on years of cutting-edge university research, Keebo's patented technology helps organizations maximize the return on their data cloud investment by proactively managing spend, ensuring continuous efficiency, and boosting team productivity. It addresses the common challenges of escalating cloud costs, manual performance tuning, and a lack of granular visibility into resource consumption.

The platform operates on a simple yet powerful principle: observe, automate, and optimize. It provides a choice between fully autonomous optimization, where the AI works 24/7 to capture savings, and a human-in-the-loop mode, which provides recommendations for your team to review and approve. This flexibility allows organizations to adopt automation at a pace that matches their comfort level and governance policies.

How to use Keebo

Getting started with Keebo is designed to be fast and non-disruptive. The entire setup process typically takes only 30 minutes and involves no data migration or operational interruptions.

1. Request a Demo or Trial: Begin by contacting the Keebo team to request a personalized demo or start a 2-week free trial.
2. Grant Secure Access: Keebo requires minimal, metadata-only access to your Snowflake or Databricks account. It does not access or read any of your actual user data, ensuring top-tier security and privacy. You'll set up a specific user and role for Keebo with limited permissions.
3. Choose Your Mode: Select either the fully autonomous mode for continuous, hands-off optimization or the human-in-the-loop mode to receive and approve AI-driven recommendations.
4. Monitor and Verify: Access the Keebo portal to get real-time visibility into spend, performance, and health. Keebo provides transparent, independently verifiable savings reports. You can even use a SQL script provided by Keebo to confirm the savings directly from your own Snowflake/Databricks metadata.

Core Features of Keebo

• AI-Powered Cost Optimization: Keebo's core engine uses reinforcement learning to proactively optimize your data cloud. This includes dynamic right-sizing of warehouses, automated suspension of idle resources, and memory optimization to eliminate waste.
• Workload Intelligence: Gain deep insights with real-time monitoring of query, storage, and cost health. It provides granular cost attribution by user, team, or workload, identifies unused data and bottlenecks, and delivers actionable, AI-driven recommendations for improvement.
• Smart Query Routing: This advanced feature intelligently routes queries to the most optimal warehouse in real-time. It decouples application logic from performance management (requiring zero code changes), centralizes governance, and prevents SLA violations, eliminating the need for over-provisioning.
• Visibility & Governance: Achieve real-time spend visibility and implement proactive financial governance. This helps cultivate a culture of accountability by showing teams the direct cost impact of their queries and workloads.

Keebo is ideal for any organization using Snowflake or Databricks that wants to gain control over its data cloud costs and performance. Common use cases include:

• FinOps and Finance Teams: Gaining predictable and transparent cloud spending, attributing costs accurately to different business units, and maximizing ROI on cloud investments.
• Data Engineering & Platform Teams: Automating tedious and time-consuming manual tuning tasks, freeing up engineers to focus on strategic initiatives. Keebo ensures constant efficiency and performance without manual intervention.
• Business Intelligence & Analytics Teams: Ensuring that queries run efficiently and reliably without performance degradation, thanks to Keebo's robust six-layer performance guarantees.
• Rapidly Growing Companies: Scaling data usage and workloads without a proportional increase in costs, enabling sustainable growth. Customer stories highlight significant savings, such as a 50% reduction in Snowflake spend with no effort from the data team.

Advantages of Keebo

Keebo stands out with several unique advantages:

• Flexible Automation: The choice between fully autonomous and human-in-the-loop modes caters to all organizational needs and risk tolerances.
• Guaranteed Performance SLAs: Unlike other tools that offer recommendations at your own risk, Keebo provides a six-layer performance guarantee, ensuring optimizations never compromise your SLAs.
• Independently Verifiable Savings: All savings are transparent and can be confirmed using your own data cloud's metadata, building trust and ensuring credibility.
• Success-Based Pricing: With a 'pay-as-you-save' model or a predictable flat fee, Keebo's pricing is directly aligned with your ROI, eliminating financial risk.
• Zero Risk Implementation & Maintenance: A 30-minute setup with no operational disruption and a fully automated system means no implementation or maintenance overhead.
