Lucidity snags $21M to help enterprises optimize their cloud storage | TechCrunch
Briefly

Many enterprises overprovision cloud data storage to accommodate peak demands, resulting in substantial waste and costs. A Deloitte report reveals up to 30% of cloud expenditure is wasted due to several factors, including poor visibility and overprovisioning. Indian startup Lucidity proposes a solution by automating storage optimization, potentially reducing cloud costs by 70%. Its NoOps product integrates seamlessly with existing systems without requiring code changes. Lucidity stands out in the market with no direct competitors, as many enterprises have not yet tackled their storage inefficiencies actively.
