Understanding Cloud Costs in Multi-Cloud Environments
Your cloud services could be spread among any number of individual cloud environments, including AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud. This creates a barrier to visibility, as separate infrastructure, resources, and pricing differ across these platforms. There’s no way to take a comprehensive look at all of your cloud costs in one place unless you have the tools to do so.
With the right third-party solution, you can maintain complete visibility over costs from multi-cloud environments. Consolidating all of your expenses into a single overview enables your team to understand prices in complex environments and streamlines the process of gathering information and carrying out assessments. You don’t have to go digging for details across platforms but enjoy it all in one place.
The right solution doesn’t just bring together data but provides a high-resolution look at your costs. The granularity of your cloud cost visibility matters, as it’s what enables you to optimize resource use and costs. You can take advantage of personalized dashboards to compare resource use and pricing across multiple environments to gain insights into your cloud infrastructure and services.
Automate Your Cloud Monitoring
You need to be able to effectively monitor your cloud resources and pricing to maintain your business capabilities and reduce costs. This is a time-consuming task in any case and quickly becomes unmanageable in multi-cloud environments. The right tools can automate monitoring to provide your team with key insights into changes, trends, and urgent situations.
You’ll be able to handle all of your FinOps monitoring in one place when you have access to the right tools. That means no more checking multiple platforms to know what’s going on with your cloud resources and costs. You’ll have all of your key metrics in one place in a format that’s intuitive and provides actionable insights for your team.
Automation in monitoring also ensures that your team knows whenever something important happens. Your organization will be more agile in the way it responds to events across any of your cloud platforms. Unexpected changes in usage, pricing, or other events are immediately communicated with your team so that you can take action to maintain your capabilities and budget.
Continuously Improve Your FinOps
The consolidated data aggregation you use to monitor your cloud resources doesn’t just allow for fast reactions but lets you understand trends over time. You’ll gain insights into long-term resource allocation and costs so that you can adjust your overall strategy to reduce costs and improve performance.
The right tools can let you evaluate metrics over time in a variety of different ways. Clear visualizations and comprehensive charts provide intuitive understanding, and the right solution can provide analytics to identify trends that your team might have overlooked.
