WHY DO CLOUD COSTS SPIRAL OUT OF CONTROL?
THE NEED FOR CONTINUOUS CLOUD COST OPTIMISATIONS
Wouldn’t it be great if you could set up a cloud environment and expect your costs to run smoothly? Unfortunately, the cloud doesn’t work that way. The fact is, nothing about the cloud is static, which is why continuous cloud cost optimisations are critical.
Growth and Change in Requirements
Business needs can change rapidly, and so can the cloud resources required to meet those needs. Without proper cost optimisation measures in place, these changing requirements can drive up cloud costs and strain financial resources.
Technology Stack Evolves
As a business's technology stack evolves, it's possible that businesses may be incurring unnecessary costs by maintaining legacy systems that no longer serve them or that have not been integrated and optimised to support new business requirements.
Cloud Updates and Innovations
Tech is evolving and improving, with new services and features being released regularly. While this presents businesses with exciting opportunities for growth and innovation, it also creates the risk of overspending on outdated or inefficient cloud services.
CLOUD COST OPTIMISATION BENEFITS
Want More Cloud, Less Costs?
Cutting costs doesn't have to mean sacrificing performance. Cloud Cost Optimisation is the process of reducing your cloud spending by identifying and optimising ill-managed resources, reserving capacity for higher discounts, eliminating unnecessary resources, and right-sizing computing services for your Cloud environment.
Optimising your cloud costs is one of the most critical responsibilities of FinOps. Benefits include:
Cost Savings
Cloud cost optimisation helps businesses identify and eliminate unnecessary expenses, reducing their overall cloud spending. This can free up resources that can be allocated to more critical areas of the business, such as research and development or customer experience initiatives.
Improved Efficiency
By optimising cloud usage, businesses can reduce wasteful resource allocation and improve operational efficiency. This can lead to faster application performance, quicker time-to-market, and better overall business agility.
Increased Scalability
Cloud cost optimisation enables businesses to scale their cloud usage up or down as needed, without incurring unnecessary expenses. This ensures that businesses can meet changing business needs while staying within budget.
Better Resource Allocation
Cloud cost optimization helps businesses identify the most efficient resource allocation strategies for their cloud environments, ensuring that they are leveraging the right mix of cloud services to meet their needs.
Enhanced Security
Cloud cost optimisation can help businesses improve their cloud security posture by ensuring that they are not overspending on unnecessary security services or underutilising critical security features.
Better Visibility and Control
Cloud cost optimisation provides businesses with greater visibility and control over their cloud environments. This can help businesses identify areas of inefficiency and take action to improve them.
Improved Governance
Cloud cost optimisation can help businesses implement better governance practices for their cloud environments, ensuring compliance with industry regulations and internal policies.
More Accurate Budget Forecasting
By optimising cloud costs, businesses can more accurately forecast their cloud spending and plan their budgets accordingly.
Better Alignment with Business Goals
Cloud cost optimisation can help businesses align their cloud strategy with their overall business goals, ensuring that they are leveraging the right cloud services to achieve their objectives.
