Cloud Cost Optimization

Recovering significant annual cloud spend for a fintech scaling faster than its infrastructure discipline.

The Problem

Rapid growth had left cloud spend un-governed — over-provisioned resources, orphaned workloads, and no reservation strategy were eroding margin.

The Approach

Conducted a full cloud spend audit, mapped cost to business unit ownership, and built a FinOps governance model alongside targeted architecture changes.

The Solution

Implemented rightsizing, reserved capacity planning, and automated cost anomaly alerts, with clear ownership assigned to engineering teams going forward.

Business Impact

  • Cloud spend reduced by close to a third within two quarters
  • Cost visibility established at the team level for the first time
  • Sustained savings maintained through ongoing FinOps governance
