Cast AI, the leading Kubernetes automation platform, today announced it has been named a notable vendor in The Cloud Cost Management And Optimization Solutions Landscape, Q3 2026, a Forrester report designed to help technology leaders understand the value they can expect from a cloud cost management and optimization (CCMO) solution and explore potential partners.
According to the report: “Technology leaders struggle to allocate, forecast, and optimize AI costs, but their biggest challenge is connecting spending to business value.” Forrester adds: “Unlike traditional cloud services, AI introduces new consumption models and pricing structures that make visibility and attribution difficult.”
Cast AI is included among the report’s notable vendors. For Cast AI, the recognition reflects the platform’s role in helping organizations govern and optimize spending across Kubernetes and GPU environments, including workloads that increasingly run AI.
“Being recognized in the Forrester’s Landscape report reflects, for us, something we’ve built our platform around from day one: cost optimization can’t be a reporting exercise bolted onto infrastructure after the fact,” said Laurent Gil, co-founder and President of Cast AI. “As AI and GPU spend becomes a growing share of what technology leaders have to manage, we believe the winners in this market will be the ones who can act on that spend automatically, not just surface it in a dashboard.”
