FinOps for business results
summary
Claims concrete savings and steps: data management ~40% of the cloud bill, organizations run on average 133% over budget, and one EMR environment sees EMR efficiency improved 50% without causing job failures. The approach uses AWS tagging, observability dashboards, daily reports, FinOps Framework practices, a Cloud Cost Center of Excellence, and Kubernetes (including device plugins for GPUs) to find $5M/year savings, eliminate $20k/month of dead data pipelines, cut infrastructure by 30% in six months, and boost margins 20% in 90 days.
