Crayon, a global leader in IT services and innovation, announced its continued collaboration with AMD to revolutionize cloud performance using AMD EPYC™ server processors. Through this collaboration, enterprises will be able to achieve unprecedented levels of efficiency by optimizing the physical processors powering their cloud infrastructure, resulting in improved performance and cost savings beyond traditional virtualization.
“ As a leader in cost optimization, FinOps and software asset management (SAM), we have consistently focused on helping customers maximize the value of their technology investments while reducing costs,” said Gudmundur Adalsteinsson, Crayon’s chief revenue officer.
“ With our advanced FinOps practices, we ensure organizations maintain financial accountability in cloud environments by providing real-time visibility and control over cloud spend across Azure, AWS, and GCP. This, combined with our collaboration with AMD, further reinforces our mission. With the establishment of the Crayon Cloud Performance Lab, we ensure our customers can take full advantage of the most optimal processors and configurations, specifically tuned to their individual workloads, to improve performance and reduce costs. AMD EPYC server processors deliver leading performance for Enterprise, HPC, and AI workloads with advanced security features,” he continued.

Crayon recently established its own Performance Lab, a unit dedicated to performing performance testing on a variety of workloads using AMD EPYC server processors. The Lab uses standard test scripts and processes to validate test results and provide customers with detailed and accurate comparisons of workload performance across multiple cloud providers and operating systems to determine optimal cloud configurations. The Lab’s independent testing confirms the exceptional efficiency of AMD processors, giving customers a reliable assessment of potential cost savings and performance gains.
Rigorous testing by the Performance Lab has validated that AMD EPYC server processors deliver exceptional efficiency and help reduce the power consumption required for high-performance workloads. Enterprises can realize savings on their cloud computing fleet by considering the underlying physical processors and going beyond a purely virtualized approach. This makes the collaboration between Crayon and AMD especially relevant for organizations looking to reduce operational costs while maximizing the power of their cloud environments.
“ The ability to harness the full potential of AMD EPYC server processors is a game-changing move for enterprises looking to reduce power consumption and increase performance,” said Blaine Noel, senior director at AMD. “ By optimizing cloud computing resources, combined with a traditional on-premises deployment model, enterprises can achieve significant cost savings while modernizing their infrastructure.”
This collaboration marks a critical step in the evolution of cloud computing, providing enterprises with the tools they need to stay ahead in a rapidly changing landscape. As workloads become increasingly complex, Crayon and AMD are leading the charge to help ensure cloud environments are prepared to efficiently meet those demands.
