We are using a bunch of cloud services at the moment such as AWS, GCP, Snowflake, Databricks.

These are all fantastic and I’m glad that we have them, but at the end of the month it feels like gut punches when the bills roll in.

Between the infrastructure as code, the auto scaling and the weird credit based systems, it feels totally out of control even at micro scale.

If I ever held the budget for a large organisation again I wouldn’t sleep at night with the amount of financial risk.

Cloud cost control should definetly be a growing demand in the future.
