About this event
Your dashboard says you could cut cloud costs by 20%. It's said that for six months. The number hasn't moved.
Seeing a savings opportunity isn't the same as being able to act on one. Engineers weigh every recommendation against re-architecture risk, regulated workloads, and roadmap commitments. Leadership sees the number and asks why it hasn't been captured. Both sides have valid fears, and whose fear wins usually decides whether anything changes.
The hardest problem in FinOps isn't visibility. It's indecision
Marit Hughes (Deloitte) and Carlos Galán (Finout) unpack why FinOps recommendations stall, how to translate between engineering, finance, and product, and how to report wins, including the optimizations you deliberately chose not to pursue.
# Moving Beyond "Waste": Shifting culture from cost-cutting to unit economics, and why cutting 5% off your bill while your unit cost rises isn't a FinOps win.
# The Power of Context: Helping engineers understand not just what they spent, but whether that spend was efficient and what it means for the business.
# The Cost of Indecision: How fear of change, from refusing to let CPU hit 70% to "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" thinking, creates invisible, compounding spend.
# Proving Value When the Waste Never Happened: How to report FinOps impact when your biggest wins are the bad decisions that were never made.
In the agentic era, infrastructure and spend evolve faster than teams can track. Finout helps FinOps teams manage this complexity by turning shared, dynamic costs into clear ownership, accurate allocation, and actionable unit economics across AI, cloud, and Kubernetes.
