Building a FinOps practice to realise the true value of cloud
summary
Outlines a concrete FinOps playbook: a four‑pillar See, Save, Plan, Run framework and a six‑step rollout that assigns ownership, enforces tagging and chargebacks, and installs executive sponsorship. Recommends tools like AWS Cost Explorer, proof‑of‑concept costing, right‑sizing, use of Graviton/Glacier/Auto Scaling, and commercial levers — savings plans up to 75% and Spot up to 90% — plus Skill Builder courses for team upskilling.
