FinOps, how data engineers get their cloud cost under control
Managing cloud cost is no longer a "management approves the budget" type of thing. Cloud Engineers need to architecht their solutions in such a way that cost can be kept under control. This is not a one time thing. Monitoring, automatic downsizing, re-factoring are all parts of the yearly tasks of any cloud team. We'll discuss theory, techniques, best practices and lessons learned.
