Spiraling cloud architecture and application costs have driven the need for new approaches to cloud spend. Today, many global industries implement FinOps, including telecommunications, retail, manufacturing, and energy conservation, as well as most Fortune 50 companies. This practice isn’t just about reducing costs.
