SHOW NOTES:
Topic 1 - Welcome to the show. Tell us a little bit about your backgrounds,
Topic 2 - We’ve spoken several times on the show about tools to control cloud cost management, but we don’t spend much time talking about the process of how companies decide it’s time to make it a focus area. Let’s talk about what thresholds tend to trigger customers to make cost management a focus area.
Topic 3 - Is cost management something that companies can think about ahead of time, or do they usually need to get past the excitement of being able to do things dynamically in the cloud first?
Topic 4 - Do you find that there are unique things in different clouds that customers should focus on around cost management? For example, you spend a lot of time with Google Cloud.
Topic 5 - Can you tell us some more about DoIT Flexsave, and maybe how it differs from some of the other types of cloud cost management tools out there? Are there typical savings that companies might expect to see?
Topic 6 - What are some of the best practices that DoIT uses with customers that are at different stages of cloud cost management, and want to get their bill under control?
