FinOps |  Cloud Cost Management

Control over your cloud costs

In today’s digital world, where companies are increasingly relying on the cloud for their infrastructure and applications, it is crucial to have insight and control over cloud costs. The growing complexity of cloud environments makes it more challenging to manage costs efficiently, leading to uncontrolled expenditures quickly adding up.

At Thornstein, we understand how important it is for companies to gain control over their cloud costs and financial processes related to the cloud. As a specialized agency in Cloud Cost Management and FinOps, we offer various services that help organizations gain transparency and control over their cloud spending.

FinOps approach

FinOps aims to optimize cloud consumption by monitoring usage and associated costs, while continuously making improvements to the cloud environment. The core of FinOps lies in gaining insight and control over who within your organization is incurring which costs. This is achieved through appropriate management of the cloud environment and the surrounding organizational landscape. The effects of this approach are visible at various levels within your organization:

Framework

The FinOps Foundation

The FinOps methodology, in line with the framework of the FinOps Foundation, provides an advanced approach to Cloud Cost Management. Through data-driven decisions and closer collaboration between disciplines, organizations can optimize their cloud consumption and maximize value. Let us help you implement FinOps today and take the next step toward efficiency in the cloud.

Our approach is business case driven, where we introduce the principle to many clients that costs should only be incurred after an approved business/cost case. This ensures that the expected costs and the benefits to be realized are clearly defined in advance.

This is what Thornstein can do for you

All of our consultants are FinOps Practitioner certified, and as a proud partner of the FinOps Foundation, we provide the necessary knowledge and expertise to help your organization effectively implement cloud cost management. Whether you’re just starting with the cloud or already have an existing cloud environment, we help you regain control and ensure optimal utilization of your cloud budgets. In doing so, we not only help you understand your cloud costs, but also manage and optimize them for the long term.
