Overview
Nobody wants a surprise on their monthly cloud bill—or even worse—to be the cause of one. For DevOps teams and engineers building high-performing, cloud native applications at speed, adding cost management to the list of growing responsibilities can seem daunting. But with tightening budgets and increasingly complex IT landscapes, a strong FinOps practice that promotes accountability and cost-aware decision-making is essential to the health of any organization.
Join leading FinOps practitioners in this series of talks to gain insights, tips, and tricks on how technology, operations, and finance teams can work together to effectively monitor, report, and allocate cloud costs—and build systems for long-term efficiency and success.
