Cloud Cost Management Demo

Growing cloud costs are a new constraint and challenge for many DevOps, FinOps, and Cloud Platform teams. Cloud Cost Management delivers granular cost data, scoped to the services developers own, so that engineers can take action on cost data. By unifying cost and observability data, engineering teams can quickly understand the root cause of cost changes, identify wasteful spend in their environment, and empower everyone across their organization to become a cost owner.

Why Unit Economics Are The Key To Unlocking Forecasting

In SaaS companies, engineers are the biggest influencers to cloud costs. They choose the infrastructure, build the products, and produce the code. Unfortunately, having this power means engineering managers are often asked to predict cloud spend months or even years into the future. An executive or a head of finance might approach the engineering head and ask how much the company will spend on cloud costs next year, thinking he or she should naturally have the answer.

The 25+ Best AWS Cost Optimization Tools (Organized By Category)

While AWS offers significant benefits compared to traditional on-premise infrastructure, its inherent elasticity and scalability tend to give rise to uncontrolled costs. AWS costs can be opaque and difficult to analyze — and without some system of identifying the source of costs and how to manage them — they can quickly undermine your profit margins. However, a number of tools have emerged over the past few years to help organizations manage and optimize their costs.
