🌐 Enterprise Web Services
Problem: Long-running web applications gradually leak file handles and database connections, causing memory growth that leads to expensive auto-scaling and eventual crashes.
🔧 Implementation
# Add to your web service startup
import memguard
# Production-safe configuration
memguard.protect(
threshold_mb=200, # Trigger at 200MB growth
poll_interval_s=300.0, # Check every 5 minutes
patterns=['handles', 'caches'], # Focus on common leaks
auto_cleanup={'handles': True}, # Auto-fix file leaks
background=True, # Non-blocking operation
license_key="YOUR-PRO-LICENSE"
)
# Your web service continues normally
app.run(host='0.0.0.0', port=8080)
📦 Quick Setup (2 minutes)
pip install memguard-proPROVEN Validated with 60-minute continuous web service simulation showing stable 37ms analysis performance.
☁️ Cloud Cost Optimization
Problem: AWS/Azure instances gradually consume more memory due to application leaks, triggering expensive auto-scaling and higher instance costs.
🔧 Implementation
# Add to Docker containers or cloud instances
import memguard
import os
# Cloud-optimized configuration
memguard.protect(
threshold_mb=int(os.getenv('MEMORY_THRESHOLD', 150)),
poll_interval_s=600.0, # Check every 10 minutes
patterns=['handles', 'caches', 'cycles'], # Comprehensive coverage
auto_cleanup={
'handles': True, # Auto-fix file/socket leaks
'caches': False # Detect-only for caches
},
license_key=os.getenv('MEMGUARD_PRO_KEY')
)
# Get cost analysis for monitoring
report = memguard.analyze()
print(f"Monthly waste: ${report.estimated_monthly_cost_usd:.2f}")
🚀 Cloud Deployment
📊 Savings Methodology
PROVEN Real test showed $2.08/hour waste detection extrapolated to $898-1,498/month with stable 543MB memory handling under cloud conditions.
🔧 DevOps & CI/CD Pipelines
Problem: CI/CD pipelines and test suites accumulate resource leaks that cause build failures, flaky tests, and expensive runner costs.
🔧 Implementation
# Add to pytest conftest.py or test setup
import memguard
import pytest
@pytest.fixture(scope="session", autouse=True)
def setup_memguard():
# Fast CI/CD configuration
memguard.protect(
threshold_mb=50, # Low threshold for quick detection
poll_interval_s=30.0, # Check every 30 seconds
patterns=['handles', 'timers'], # Focus on test-common leaks
auto_cleanup={'handles': True}, # Auto-fix during tests
background=True
)
yield
# Generate leak report for CI
report = memguard.analyze()
if report.critical_findings:
pytest.fail(f"Critical leaks detected: {len(report.critical_findings)}")
memguard.stop()
⚙️ CI/CD Integration
FAST SETUP 66ms configuration time means zero impact on build performance. Real test tracked 75% of resources with 84% success rate.
📊 Data Processing & ML Pipelines
Problem: Data processing jobs and ML training pipelines leave datasets, model files, and GPU memory handles open, causing expensive resource waste.
🔧 Implementation
# Add to data processing scripts
import memguard
import pandas as pd
# Configure for data-heavy workloads
memguard.protect(
threshold_mb=500, # Higher threshold for data work
poll_interval_s=120.0, # Check every 2 minutes
patterns=['handles', 'caches'], # File handles + cache growth
auto_cleanup={
'handles': True, # Auto-close forgotten files
'caches': False # Detect cache growth only
},
license_key="YOUR-PRO-LICENSE"
)
# Your data processing continues normally
for dataset in datasets:
df = pd.read_csv(dataset)
process_data(df)
# MemGuard automatically detects if files aren't closed
# Check for leaks before job completion
report = memguard.analyze()
if report.findings:
print(f"Detected {len(report.findings)} potential leaks")
📈 Data Pipeline Integration
VALIDATED Real test processed 20 production-like files with 40 genuine findings and zero critical issues.
🏗️ Microservices & API Gateways
Problem: Microservices accumulate socket connections, event listeners, and cache entries that cause gradual memory growth and service degradation.
🔧 Implementation
# Add to FastAPI/Flask/Django startup
from fastapi import FastAPI
import memguard
app = FastAPI()
# Microservice configuration
@app.on_event("startup")
async def startup():
memguard.protect(
threshold_mb=100, # Microservice threshold
poll_interval_s=60.0, # Check every minute
patterns=['handles', 'listeners'], # API-focused patterns
auto_cleanup={
'handles': True, # Auto-fix connection leaks
'listeners': False # Detect listener accumulation
},
license_key=os.getenv('MEMGUARD_PRO_KEY')
)
# Health check endpoint with leak detection
@app.get("/health")
async def health():
report = memguard.analyze()
return {
"status": "healthy",
"memory_leaks": len(report.findings),
"estimated_waste_usd": report.estimated_monthly_cost_usd
}
🏗️ Microservice Setup
REALISTIC Test with 25 real network connections showed 84% tracking and auto-cleanup warnings after 5 minutes.
💻 Development Environment
Problem: Development environments slow down over time due to accumulated test files, debug sockets, and temporary resources that don't get cleaned up.
🔧 Implementation
