Description: Value management in the context of FinOps and cloud cost optimization refers to the process of managing and maximizing the value delivered by cloud resources and services, ensuring that technology investments yield the expected return. This approach involves close collaboration between financial and operational teams to align business objectives with the efficient use of cloud resources. Value management focuses on identifying key metrics that allow for the evaluation of performance and effectiveness of investments, as well as implementing practices that optimize costs without sacrificing service quality. Through the adoption of analysis and monitoring tools, organizations can gain visibility into their cloud spending, identify areas for improvement, and make informed decisions that drive operational efficiency. In an environment where cloud costs can escalate rapidly, value management becomes an essential component to ensure that every dollar invested contributes to the growth and sustainability of the business.
