Hi. I’m going to try to take some time and somewhat consistently post things here that are on my mind. Today’s topic is around cloud spend. From the FOCUS site, you have 3 main things that you need to focus on. Inform, Optimize, Operate. Informing is when you get all of your cloud costs lined up and tagged and reported on in a manner that is best for the viewer. Your CEO, perhaps, maybe your peers, maybe leads and engineers and managers. All of which need different data from the cloud – and proper analysis. Here’s some links that I find helpful when thinking about reporting on the cloud.
