In today’s cloud-driven world, controlling cloud costs without sacrificing performance is a key challenge. Microsoft Azure FinOps (Financial Operations) is a framework that brings a strategic approach to managing cloud expenditures, transforming it from a guessing game into a structured process. For businesses utilizing Azure, learning FinOps fundamentals can unlock new cost-saving opportunities and enhance collaboration across finance, IT, and business teams.
Daymark Solutions’ comprehensive Azure FinOps workshop offers hands-on labs, expert-led discussions, and interactive exercises designed to teach critical cost management skills. Participants dive into rightsizing Azure resources, managing orphaned resources, and leveraging Azure’s unique cost-saving options like Azure Hybrid Benefit, Reserved Instances, and Azure Savings Plans. Each session balances theory with practical exercises to build a solid foundation for financial governance within Azure environments.
Key FinOps principles, such as continuous improvement and optimization, are at the core of the workshop. The workshop guides participants through Azure cost management tools like Azure Monitor, Azure Advisor, and Azure Cost Management, learning how to analyze resource utilization, rightsize deployments, and identify underutilized resources. By applying these insights, organizations can achieve immediate cost savings and optimize their Azure environments for the long term.
The workshop culminates in developing a hypothetical FinOps strategy, where participants create a tailored roadmap to optimize cloud expenditures. This strategy serves as a blueprint, aligning cloud spending with business objectives and setting up mechanisms for ongoing financial oversight. By the end of the workshop, attendees will have gained practical experience in applying Azure’s cost-management features and be prepared to lead FinOps efforts within their organizations.
