• Speaker: Niki Manoledaki
• Duration: 30-45 mins
• Abstract: Are you plagued by creeping cloud costs? Monitoring and reducing costs is a critical challenge for cloud users yet most engineering teams are not tracking this due to the complex nature of cloud native cost monitoring. Where is your money going? Join us to learn more about how engineering teams can integrate FinOps principles to monitor the cost of Kubernetes and other cloud resources. We will present strategies on how cost data pipelines and Prometheus metrics can enable team-level accountability that leads to savings sustained over the long term.
