Is it a Savings or a Spend Reduction? Disney FinOps Engineer Alee Whitman Helps Us Identify

[@gma_reads]

Well done, Alee. A good distinction between savings, spend reduction, and cost avoidance. Your conversation around setting and tracking budgets should be helpful to many teams! So glad you got engineers to log their successes in spend reduction.

Awesome session, Alee, thanks for sharing your experiences and for reminding everyone that inaccuracies are okay and that this is an iterative process.

It definitely is! I say it's our first wrong answer a lot and get our teams comfortable that things can and will change as we learn/mature.
