FinOps You Can Ship: Karpenter, Spot, and Cost-Per-Feature Dashboards
Cloud adoption has never been higher, and neither has cloud waste. Teams move fast, deploy faster, and unknowingly spend even faster. Somewhere between Kubernetes abstractions, auto-generated infrastructure, and vague monthly bills, the relationship between engineering decisions and cloud costs breaks down. Over the last year, both the FinOps community and academic research have converged on […]
Cloud Cost Optimization: Dynamic Autoscaling, Spot Instances, and Intelligent Scheduling
Cloud bills rarely scream—you notice them after they’ve already crept up. The smarter alternative to “cutting spend” is cloud cost optimization: aligning consumption to real demand so you pay only for what you actually need. In this post I’ll walk through three high-impact levers—dynamic autoscaling, spot instances, and intelligent scheduling—and show how combining them gives […]
