Martin Peták for CloudNativePrague: Cloud budget on a leash

Cloud Budget on a Leash was the title of Martin Peták's presentation at CloudNativePrague's October Meet-up. Now, you can watch the recording of the talk!

Have you ever found it difficult to budget for on-premises infrastructure, asking questions like, "How many machines will I need next year?" Well, budgeting for cloud infrastructure presents its own set of challenges. While you'll likely never run out of computing power in the cloud, predicting how much it will cost can be tricky, especially with autonomous teams that operate independently.

In this talk, you'll learn how to effectively budget for cloud resources for the year alongside your development teams and collaborate with them throughout the year to adhere to the budget.

You can expect our insights on the following topics:

• How to estimate the cost of shared services when their expenses directly depend on actual usage.
• Strategies for encouraging teams and departments to adhere to their budget allocations.
• Our journey in discovering the most effective approach to cloud budgeting.
• Insights on FinOps activities and their impact.
