Data FinOps: The Key to Unlocking Business Insights?
Managing cloud data expenses is crucial for maintaining budget control and efficiency in platforms like Databricks and Snowflake. DataFinOps, combining DataOps and FinOps principles, aligns stakeholders to make informed financial decisions, aiming to optimize costs and maximize value. The DataFinOps lifecycle includes three stages: inform (understanding and visualizing costs), optimize (reducing waste and inefficiency), and operate (proactive cost management through automation). Pitfalls often arise from using DevOps tools for data-specific needs. Effective DataFinOps involves integrating financial and performance data, employing specialized tools, and implementing automated cost governance and optimization strategies.?
