FinOps : optimising Cloud Consumption and Costs - Event during the Brussels Padel Open

Wednesday 4th of May 2022 – 17:00 to 18:30 (GMT +1)

Two-thirds of organisations that have made the move to the cloud have seen their costs increase compared to their previous situation. And for the remaining third, only half say they have reached their cost savings goals.

Do you really have full control over your cloud spending? Are you able to make the necessary adjustments to optimise these costs? Do you have the governance and tools in place to achieve your savings targets?

The challenges of managing and financially controlling cloud infrastructure are a common occurrence, every day, everywhere. Not only because the costing model is radically different, but also because the IT consumption model has changed radically, especially when DevOps came along.

Sopra Steria is organising a special Cloud FinOps event with its partner IBM, and its client Schréder to:

  • Present the Sopra Steria approach, with a particular focus on operational optimisation and immediate savings that can be collected monthly, and possible longer-term improvements.
  • Share the testimony of Schréder's CIO on their FinOps experience with Sopra Steria applied to their cloud infrastructure.

FinOps Graphic
 
  • A strategic approach will start by optimising the existing on-premises workload, giving breathing space to stifling applications and delaying unnecessary investments, while planning a "quick wins" migration to the cloud for specific applications and accelerating adoption through success stories;
  • A tactical approach will be to investigate cloud options while the migration decision is already made: which cloud provider, which services and technologies, and for what expected business growth. 
  • Finally, once the cloud journey has begun, the operational approach focuses on how to regain full control of spend, identify pockets of financial but also performance optimisation, and make it sustainable through good governance of cloud consumption.
