Design for costs, four pillars of economic cloud design en nl

Developers are being exposed to things like FinOps or a massive Azure bill. So let's start incorporating costs into our cloud design to make the best performance solution and the most economical solution!
In 2022 we see that security by design is common sense, why not incorporate the financial aspect.
In this session we will share our thoughts on maintaining grip on your cloud bill & maintaining high performance. By incorporating our four pillars of economic cloud design you are able to design cost efficient and high performant cloud solutions.
We will of course also explain "Zero User Costs" and "Geo Efficiency" so you can start today.

Session duration is approx. 20-30 minutes, but can be extended or shortened. Session is delivered by 2 people. (Twan Koot & Michiel Hamers)

Design for costs, four pillars of economic cloud design en nl

Je word steeds vaker geconfronteerd met termen als FINOPS, DEVOPS, BIZOPS. Hierdoor krijg je als developer steeds meer te maken met de kosten die de cloud met zich mee brengen. Je ziet bij veel grote organisaties die vroeger on-premises werkte een grote verschuiving naar de cloud, security is by design, waarom dan niet een economic by design. In deze sessie gaan wij in om jou als developer te helpen grip te krijgen (en behouden) op de cloud architectuur. Uiteraard met kosten en performance in mind om zo de meest optimale architectuur neer te zetten. Aan het eind van deze sessie kan je zelf met onze 4 pijlers aan de slag. Denk bijvoorbeeld aan "Zero User Costs" en "Geo Efficiency".

Sessie duur is ongeveer 20 tot 30 minuten. Deze kan gewenst ingekort danwel verlengt worden.
