Another year has flown by. As we wrap up another exciting AWS re:Invent, I’m excited to share the latest enhancements in AWS Cloud Financial Management (CFM) space. This year’s announcements reflect our commitment to providing comprehensive solutions across the four CFM pillars: track and allocate, govern and operate, forecast and plan, and optimize and save. We’ve also made significant improvements in AI for CFM, which impacts all four CFM pillars.

Are you ready to maximize your Cloud Financial Management (CFM) learning and networking time at re:Invent 2025? As usual, I’ve put together this comprehensive guide to help you plan your schedule and make the most of the CFM sessions available this year. This year’s catalog features an exciting mix of content across different formats: from breakout, chalk talks, workshops, builder’s sessions, to code talks.

We’re excited to engage with the FinOps community at FinOps X 2025 in San Diego, June 2-5. If you’re looking to spend quality time with the AWS team, here’s where you can find us from reception parties on Monday evening, keynote, breakout sessions, booth, and customer meetings. Can’t wait to see you all soon!

With re:Invent 2024 in the books, and over 50 launch announcements, here are four that we’re most excited about. The overarching theme of these launches appears to be leveraging Amazon’s automation capabilities to optimize costs and improve efficiency for customers.

We hope that these ten new features will help accomplish your daily FinOps tasks more effectively. These new features are like our holiday gifts to you. Enjoy your holiday and these special gifts from us. We look forward to hearing about your experiences with them.
