Cloud promises scalability, but without oversight, costs can spiral. FinOps—a blend of finance and operations—brings visibility and discipline to cloud spend. It’s about empowering teams to take ownership of their resource usage while maintaining cost-efficiency. In practice, FinOps means real-time dashboards, usage tagging, and automated policies to shut down idle resources. By building a culture of financial accountability, businesses can scale smarter and make cloud a growth enabler, not a cost burden.
