As cloud adoption continues to grow, so does the need for organizations to manage and optimize cloud costs effectively. In TDWI research, we often see that a top challenge for cloud is the cost associated with it. To better manage this cost, some organizations are adopting principles of financial operations (FinOps). FinOps brings finance, technology, and business teams together to collaborate on cloud spending strategies, fostering a unified approach to cloud cost management.
FinOps begins with establishing clear visibility into cloud spending, followed by workload optimization to eliminate waste and maximize resource efficiency, which should result in streamlined operations that embed cost accountability and financial governance across the organization. Join experts from nOps and Databricks as they discuss the tools and processes to help optimize the costs associated with your cloud platforms. Topics include:
- What are the biggest challenges with optimizing cloud costs?
- What are the key items to look at when optimizing cloud cost?
- How does the nOps and Databricks partnership support cloud cost optimization?
- What are the best practices for getting started with FinOps?
