With the cloud, that conversation is increasing as CTOs get their cloud bills and want to know why and how so much money is being spent. Chris introduces Michael to the concept of FinOps and how it can track cloud spending, why it’s important, and how it can help engineers keep their jobs. Chris is Managing Partner at LionKube.
