2025 Cloudability Sessions
FinOps Meets GenAI: Optimizing the Cost of Intelligence
June 3 | 11:00 – 11:45am PDT
Generative AI workloads are reshaping whole industries — but they’re also some of the most expensive and unpredictable to run in the cloud. As organizations race to integrate GenAI into their products and pipelines, FinOps becomes essential for keeping innovation sustainable. In this session, we’ll demystify these workloads by breaking them down into four GenAI technology layers and explore the optimization strategies that apply to each. Not only will we unpack how FinOps principles can be applied to manage unique challenges including GPU utilization, financial forecasting, and chargeback strategies but we’ll dive into unit cost metrics that can be used to reliably measure and improve cost efficiency.

Chasing The Last Mile: Operationalizing Resource Optimization for Maximum Savings
June 4 | 10:00 – 10:45am PDT
Cloud cost optimization doesn’t stop with the big and obvious wins. In this session, we’ll explore how leading organizations are chasing the “last mile” of efficiency by operationalizing resource optimization through targeted recommendations, automation, and shift-left FinOps practices.
Learn how teams embed actionable insights into engineering workflows, automate cleanup of idle resources, and apply targeted strategies across containerized and hybrid environments. Walk away with a practical framework for turning optimization from an occasional task into an ongoing, value-driving discipline.
