Everything is better as a code
Cloud spend can quickly outpace business growth when financial governance isn't built into operations. This article explores how applying FinOps principles "as code" helps organizations like yours align infrastructure consumption with business goals. Read the article to see how teams are shifting left on cost control and reducing friction between IT, engineering and finance. Contact MIS Solutions to discuss how FinOps can be integrated into your cloud cost strategy.
FinOps as Code (FaC) is a practical approach that integrates financial management principles directly into the infrastructure management life cycle (IMLC). It automates the management of cloud costs by embedding FinOps best practices into the workflows of engineers. This integration allows organizations to enforce budgets, identify cost-saving opportunities, and optimize resource allocation without requiring significant manual intervention.
How can FaC benefit engineering teams?
Implementing FinOps as Code offers several benefits to engineering teams, including automating cost optimization, providing real-time visibility into costs, reducing maintenance disruptions, and enabling efficient resource allocation. By automating these processes, engineers can focus more on innovation and development rather than manual cost management, ultimately leading to better resource utilization and reduced cloud waste.
What are the potential savings from adopting FaC?
Organizations that adopt FinOps as Code could potentially unlock significant cost savings, estimated at around $120 billion. This figure is based on the expected global spending of approximately $440 billion on cloud infrastructure services in 2025, along with the 28% of cloud spending that organizations typically report as waste. By effectively implementing FaC, companies can tap into these savings and improve their overall cloud cost management.

Established in 1999 in Boston, MA, MIS Solutions is a technology consulting firm that modernizes data centers and enables Cloud for its customers. Cloud is NOT technology. Cloud is a framework that leverages technology to deliver business value and reduce operation overhead. Cloud can either be a lifestyle or a use-case. MIS Solutions understands that there is people and process that come before technology. In the beginning, services centered around infrastructure services (compute, virtualization, storage, backup and replication). Today, MIS Solutions provides Cloud services. Our focus starts with Amazon Web Services (AWS), bleeds into Microsoft Azure and ends with Google Cloud Platform (GCP). Please feel free to reach out to us at info@misfirm.com.
