the problem
Cloud Cost Allocation
Allocating cloud costs across teams can be complex and challenging, making accurate forecasting and budgeting a difficult task
De-Incentivization
My cloud provider plays nicely, but not incentivised to reduce my costs
Knowledge Gap
Engineering teams don’t often consider cost in their daily activities, and active sponsorship of cloud costs is difficult due to the knowledge gap between CxOs and technology teams.
Expensive SaaS Tool
Cloud bills are confusing and it’s difficult to understand which activities to prioritise for cost reduction without investing in expensive SaaS products.
