A Look at Intuit's Cloud Cost Optimization and FinOps Best Practices

Is there a way to remove the images of the various people so we can see the CONTENT?

Thanks for the feedback here. This was a presentation from a while ago that we resurfaced to share with the community. Since the recording date for this presentation, we've improved our presentation style since. Hopefully our newer presentations and videos aren't as distracting, but let us know if that's not the case. We're constantly wanting to improve our video content so our community members have the best experience possible.

Dieter are these stock ML algorithms in AWS or something Intuit created?

Hi Rashmi, This is Dieter, we used a default open source algorithm called a bag of neural networks, nothing specifically tuned for this problem, and out of the box the algorithm did a decent enough job that we didn't pursue additional tuning.

@@CloudEconomicsUS - Hi Dieter, I don't have a financial background but what I have encountered is that there are loads of enterprises/clients that are not adept to understanding cloud costs and the balance that is required to innovate. I will continue to research the FinOps foundation framework/document and videos. Thank you for your response and I hope that I can reach out if I have future questions. Great presentation btw.
