FinOps aims to implement a strategy that can assist businesses in analyzing their costs, monitoring, and performance, allowing the customer to efficiently plan their infrastructure without sacrificing performance and availability. This translates into discovering cost-effective ways to maximize both performance and efficiency.

To achieve this, we will draw upon cloud best practices related to cost optimization, establishing four fundamental principles, which are:

-Cost monitoring and control.

-Understanding billing.

-Maximizing benefits.

-Making informed decisions.

Among the benefits provided by FinOps are:

Cost Savings: Cost management enables us to make informed decisions that enhance cost optimization.

Budget Control: Monitoring and controlling each cost element generated, creating customized budgets through labels or tags, which help us to detect anomalies and address them immediately.

Governance efficiency: Cost management seeks to maximize governance efficiency through automatable policies that generate operational and financial efficiency. Cost Control: Understanding the why, when, and how costs are essential for continuous and proactive cost control.

Enhanced Visibility: Cost management, through customizable reports, budget and cost control provides a better visibility of what's happening in our customer's infrastructure and costs, allowing us to take preventive measures against any anomalies that may arise.
