Finout: A cross-app cloud cost control tower

Finout Intellyx BC logoAn Intellyx Brain Candy Brief

When project and product managers consider and specify the infrastructure and data services that make up a cloud application, initial cloud cost estimates often balloon out of control once real-world customer usage kicks in. 

Finout provides a cost control plane for tracking and optimizing cloud compute and storage costs and SaaS application license and usage fees along both service and customer dimensions.

Different components of an application may be hosted on hybrid IT resources from public clouds and private datacenters, and utilize any number of potentially expensive usage-based services for security, observability and data warehousing such as Snowflake, Datadog, Splunk, etc.

Finout lets developers tag relevant FinOps indicators for informing all cost-related aspects of the application under scrutiny, filtering and presenting them as a consolidated “Megabill” alongside dashboards for reviewing cost and revenue SLIs from an overall enterprise view down to the profitability-per-customer level.
