CloudLens. See your Azure clearly.
CloudLens is Optika's own platform for Azure visibility. It connects to your subscriptions read-only, assesses them continuously, and turns thousands of settings into a short list of what to fix, what it costs and why it matters.
What it shows you
Four views of one Azure estate
Governance
Subscriptions, resource groups, tags, locks and policy compliance, with drift from your standards flagged as it happens.
Security posture
Exposed resources, missing encryption, over-privileged roles and risky configurations, scored against CIS Azure Foundations.
Cost intelligence
Spend by workload and owner, idle and oversized resources, reservation and savings-plan opportunities.
Compliance evidence
Exportable reports mapped to POPIA, ISO 27001 and CIS, ready for auditors and customers.
Landing zone visibility
Built on the Azure Landing Zone architecture
CloudLens implements the monitoring aspects of the Azure Landing Zone conceptual architecture, giving you visibility into both platform landing zones (identity, management, connectivity) and application landing zones.
- Real-time visibility into your Azure Landing Zone health
- Policy compliance tracking with clear red/green indicators
- Security posture monitoring integrated with Microsoft Defender for Cloud
- Cost optimisation insights across all subscriptions
- Resource organisation tracking across management groups
- Automated alerting for security, compliance and cost thresholds
For managed service providers
One lens across every client tenant
If you run Azure for other businesses, you know the problem: twenty tenants, twenty portals, and no honest answer to 'which client is at risk today?'. CloudLens is multi-tenant by design. Connect each client with a read-only application, and see them all scored side by side.
Portfolio view
Every client tenant on one screen: governance, security posture, cost and compliance scores, ranked so your team starts with the client that needs it most.
Per-client drill-down
From the portfolio into any client's subscriptions, resources and findings, with the same plain-language explanations and fix steps.
Client-ready reporting
Monthly reports per client, branded for your practice, that turn 'we monitor your cloud' into evidence your clients can see.
Alerting your way
Security, compliance and cost thresholds per client, delivered to your service desk, so findings become tickets with owners.
Lightweight onboarding
A read-only Entra ID application per client, no agents and no write access. Most tenants are connected in under an hour.
Revenue, not just visibility
Each finding is a scoped remediation job. CloudLens gives your account managers a quarterly conversation with every client, backed by numbers.
