Prepare your organization for the new reality of cloud

Cloud comes with opportunities, but also with challenges. The flexibility, scalability and ease of use make the cloud powerful, but many organizations struggle with the consequences on their spend and cost control.

After the shock of the migration comes the bill shock from the cloud provider: spend exceeds budgets and expectations. The bill itself gives little clue on where the spend is being done, and what can be done to reduce it.

Based on the FinOps® framework Cloud Economics helps you to take control over your cloud spend again by locating optimizations and getting your organization ready to keep it under control by setting up processes and tools, and training people to enable your organization to do it by itself.

CE delivers tangible, actionable recommendations to guide organizations to reduce costs and optimize cloud workloads.
