The processes that led to the overspending in the first place are most likely the pricing models you agreed to. There are a million ways to manage this spend, but at the end of they day you are now held hostage by your hosting company.

Go buy cloud resources from companies that sell what you need: cpu, memory, storage, and network capacity. You just want to pay for the hardware, shelf space, and network/energy usage with a reasonable profit margin to the data-center owner. Don't buy resources from companies selling you a bag full of shit marketing terms they made up so they can meter your usage to death with some product. Building your business on premium cloud services in partnership with the richest men on earth is probably why your spend is getting out of control.
