About ParkMyAWS
What is ParkMyAWS
ParkMyAWS is a SaaS application that automates EC2 and RDS scheduling to reduce AWS cloud costs. Teams use ParkMyAWS to schedule non-production resources to stop at night and on weekends, saving 30-65% on those resources. Instead of paying for development, staging, and test environments around the clock, you define when they should be running and ParkMyAWS handles the rest.
How It Works
Setting up ParkMyAWS takes about five minutes. You connect your AWS account by creating a cross-account IAM role, which is the access method recommended by AWS for third-party integrations. Once connected, ParkMyAWS discovers your EC2 and RDS resources automatically.
You then create schedules that define when resources should be running — for example, weekdays from 9am to 6pm. ParkMyAWS automatically stops resources outside those hours and starts them again when the schedule resumes. No manual intervention required.
Supported Services
- EC2 instances, including Auto Scaling groups
- RDS databases, including Aurora clusters
- ECS service scheduling (coming soon)
Security Model
ParkMyAWS connects to your AWS account using cross-account IAM roles with least-privilege permissions. No AWS access keys are stored. All access uses temporary STS credentials that expire automatically. You control the IAM role in your own account and can revoke access at any time.
All data is encrypted in transit using TLS and at rest using AES-256.
Pricing
Plans range from €39/month for individuals to €179/month for teams. All plans include all features. ParkMyAWS offers a 14-day free trial with no credit card required.
