This whitepaper addresses how Azure customers can reduce their cloud expenses using FinOps practices. It emphasizes the importance of democratizing cost management by involving engineering and operations teams, rather than relying solely on a dedicated FinOps team. This approach ensures that those responsible for application delivery also manage costs, although it can lead to cost management being a lower priority.
The document highlights the role of accountability and governance, drawing parallels to personal training to illustrate the importance of continuous monitoring and guidance.
