FinOps for Public Cloud

In the Public Cloud Scope, FinOps brings financial transparency, collaboration, and accountability to cloud spending, ensuring that companies can innovate while keeping their cloud costs under control and aligned with business goals. Most organizations will start with FinOps for public cloud as their initial Scope.

Elements of the FinOps Framework – such as Personas, Domains, and Capabilities – act as foundational building blocks for your FinOps Scopes. Their selection should reflect your organization’s FinOps Maturity and situational context. Practitioners can then apply these Scopes to structure their FinOps activities, define ownership boundaries, and align teams around measurable outcomes.
