Cloud cost optimisation and smarter technology investment | Future Ready with Bechtle
Cloud platforms promise flexibility, scalability and agility. However, as organisations increase their reliance on cloud services and AI technologies, understanding and controlling operational spend has become a growing challenge for many businesses.
In this episode of Future Ready with Bechtle, host Stephen Harley is joined by Kyle Van Der Linde, Senior Azure Consultant at Bechtle UK, to explore the realities of FinOps, cloud cost management and why cloud spend should be treated as a deliberate business decision rather than an uncontrolled operational expense.
In this episode, we cover:
Why cloud spend is driven by decisions rather than simple business growth
The challenges organisations face managing costs at scale
The importance of accountability and governance in cloud environments
How tagging and cost allocation improve visibility into cloud spend
Identifying wasteful and underutilised cloud resources
The role of FinOps in managing SaaS, AI and cloud consumption
Why continuous optimisation is replacing retrospective cost reviews
How organisations can align cloud spend to business value
The importance of CFO and CIO collaboration in FinOps strategies
The growing impact of AI services and token consumption on cloud costs
