Action Hub
One inbox for everything your cloud is asking you to do.
Cost, compliance, anomaly, monitoring, and reliability findings — all in one queue, with a workflow that stops things slipping. We surface the problem and the recommended action. You decide. Nothing changes in your cloud without a human pressing the button.

Sound familiar?
Savings get spotted, mentioned in a meeting, and forgotten.
Compliance findings live in a SecurityHub tab nobody opens.
DR and monitoring gaps surface during incidents, not before.
Engineers don't know which thing to do first — so nothing gets done.
Leadership can't tell what's in flight versus what's stalled.
How it works
Five lanes. Every finding goes through them.
Mirrors the workflow inside the product. New items land in the inbox, get claimed by an owner, change made, evidence verified, and captured for the report. Nothing gets lost in between.
Inbox
New findings, grouped by domain with $/mo or risk impact next to each.
In Progress
Claimed by an owner with a due date. Work underway.
To Validate
Change made, awaiting evidence the impact is real.
Complete
Verified saving or remediation. Captured for the report.
On Hold
Explicitly deferred with a reason. Resurfaces automatically.
What you see
Every finding, in one queue.
Six domain tabs. Monthly impact priced on every line. Source and severity at a glance. Bulk actions for when you've got a backlog to clear.
- 1
Domain filter chips — Cost, Wastage, Anomaly, Compliance, Monitoring, Reliability — each with a count.
- 2
Monthly impact column — every item priced. The queue is sorted by what actually matters.
- 3
Findings count — multi-account aggregation so duplicates collapse into one row.
- 4
Source column — which account and which framework or detector raised it.
- 5
Bulk-claim and bulk-defer when you need to clear a backlog in one pass.
Where items come from
Three sources. Same workflow.
Whether it's AWS flagging an unused volume, Emnode spotting a DR gap, or an engineer logging something they noticed — every item flows through the same queue with the same audit trail.
Cloud-native signals
Pulled from AWS Cost Explorer, Trusted Advisor, SecurityHub, Compute Optimizer, Backup, CloudWatch; Azure Cost Management and Defender. No instrumentation needed.
Emnode-generated
Opinionated checks layered on top of raw provider data: rightsizing rules, commitment coverage gaps, DR posture, monitoring maturity, anomaly detection.
Engineer-submitted
Anyone on the team can add an item with a suggested action and an owner. Same workflow, same audit trail.
The decision pattern
We do the heavy lifting on the data. You stay in charge of your cloud.
A four-step pattern that runs through every finding. Identify, decide, act, verify — with the audit trail you need when someone asks how an account ended up the way it did.
Identify
We surface what changed and what it costs or risks. Severity and $/mo on every item.
Decide
Claim, defer with reason, or reject. Comments and full audit trail.
Act
Your team makes the change in your cloud. We do not. Read-only by design.
Verify
We measure the actual impact and move it to Complete. Verified savings, not estimated ones.
What changes in a month
A queue that drains, not grows.
Sample of the metrics customers track once the Action Hub is in use. The numbers stop being a mystery and start being a target.

Pairs well with
Your cloud operations won't sort themselves out.
But they don't need a specialist either. Connect Emnode, get clarity across all four pillars, and start closing the gap.
