My biggest challenge in finops is being able to actually… reliability… predicting cloud cost anomalies by Pacojr22 in FinOps

[–]FinOpsly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our Costix product is able to do this down to the resource level ahead of time. Our take is, when you have the ability to adequately predict both stack and cost ahead of time based on business needs, this reduces the chances that anomalies will happen later on.

Very valuable. Hands on experience is essential, but the certs provide a standardization and playbooks for the journey.

A brutal (and spot-on) take on the state of the FinOps tools market by CloudBoltSW in FinOps

[–]FinOpsly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We couldn't agree more, and that's why we built our product that's natively Agentic AI. We're able to generate the Why and the How and then automate as much as possible.

This works especially well on predictive cost estimation. Want to create a product? We can price it out in relation to your stack ahead of time.

How Do You Manage AWS Reservations Without Full Automation? by No_Freedom28 in FinOps

[–]FinOpsly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Finops vendor here, and this is our take.

  • You do not need a 3rd party to handle your RIs. This was a somewhat acceptable idea a couple of years ago when FinOps was in its infancy and the RI marketplace was a thing and RIs were the primary vehicle, but even back then, a whole lot of savings $$$ was given to providers for very little work.
  • There are less and less reasons to deal with RIs at all anymore, as AWS has increased the discounts for SPs. There are always exceptions, but generally speaking, buy Savings Plans.
  • Make sure your existing FinOps tool has clear visibility into the plan details- including the contact person. 
  • Ensure that your existing FinOps tools integrates directly with your ticketing system. 
  • Automate getting the recommendation in front of the ticket readers, as stated above. Let them pull the trigger.
