In this episode, Jenna Barron interviews Martin Reynolds, field CTO of Harness, about the misalignment between developers and FinOps. The company recently did a report that backed up the claims that developers and FinOps aren't properly aligned, and they talk about some of the findings of that report.
Some key points of discussion include:
- The fact that over half of developers say their cloud purchasing commitments are based on guesswork
- The lack of data on idle cloud resources, unused resource, and over or underprovisioned workloads
- Processes and tools that can help with alignment
- How the adoption of AI has contributed to the problem
