The modern SaaS approach requires engineering to address a lot more of the financial element, a critical part of delivery and efficiency which was less common for engineering leadership pre-cloud and the PaaS era.

We will describe the processes and framework that can be applied to every major cloud vendor, and give specific examples and tools we’ve built on GCP to address the needs we had at PerimeterX
