- Document and Share Insights : Track cost savings from optimization efforts and communicate clear, actionable results to stakeholders.
- Enhance Visibility : Tag and label application-specific and shared resources to improve cost tracking and attribution, enabling better decision-making.
- Evaluate ROI : Analyze the cost of running applications (e.g., cloud-hosted versus on-prem) and compare against revenue contributions to guide strategic investments.
- Collaborate and Coach : Partner with engineering and product teams to implement FinOps best practices, develop cost-aware standards, and promote a culture of cost optimization.
- Automate and Refine : Continuously improve cost management processes by introducing automation and monitoring tools to scale efforts and drive efficiencies.
You Have :
