FinOps and Cloud cost reduction
Why do we need a FinOps strategy?
FinOps Strategy
As Platform Engineering focuses on building efficient, scalable, and developer-friendly platforms, FinOps ensures that cloud costs are optimised and transparent across teams.
I'm skeptical that FinOps strategy will have any benefit
Benefits of FinOps
By integrating FinOps principles, Platform Engineering teams can drive better collaboration between finance, operations, and development teams, ensuring that platforms are not only technically robust but also financially sustainable.
We have a great deal with our cloud provider, which negates the need for a FinOps strategy
Cloud Credits are not sustainable
When cloud credits run out, cutting costs is hard because teams often lack cost awareness, rely on inefficient architectures, and face operational challenges. Without proactive FinOps practices, overspending can becomes ingrained, and re-architecting for efficiency can be too complex.
