Join us as we talk with Olfa from Azure Cloud Academy about why FinOps implementations often take longer than expected. We explore the gaps between FinOps theory and real-world production, the importance of understanding business value, and the role of cultural practices in achieving cloud cost efficiency.

Discover the common pitfalls, including ownership issues, alert fatigue, and the challenge of balancing automated remediation with contextual actions. Gain valuable insights into building trust within engineering teams, optimizing anomaly detection, and effective monitoring practices.
