CloudZero advances its AnyCost™ initiative with
support for the FinOps Foundation's FOCUS specification, further
enhancing its cost data ingestion and analysis capabilities
BOSTON, June 20,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- CloudZero, the globally
trusted leader in proactive cloud cost efficiency, announced today
the release of its new FinOps Cost and Usage Specification (FOCUS)
AnyCost integration. This new integration leverages CloudZero's
unified data model for multi-cloud cost and usage data, enabling
FinOps professionals to easily ingest, analyze, and manage cost
data from any FOCUS data source.
FOCUS is a Linux Foundation technical project supported by the
FinOps Foundation, which CloudZero has championed as a contributing
member and maintainer. FOCUS aims to establish an open
specification for cloud billing data, defining a vendor-neutral,
cross-cloud schema to simplify the ingestion and analysis of cost
and usage data.
The FinOps Foundation has tirelessly advocated for the FinOps
community and the broader adoption of specifications like FOCUS
through vendor collaborations and raising awareness among FinOps
practitioners and cloud service providers such as Amazon Web
Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud. As additional
cloud services, PaaS, and SaaS providers implement and utilize the
FOCUS specification, FinOps professionals will find it more
straightforward to evaluate, manage, and report on their cloud
expenditures across their entire cloud infrastructure.
CloudZero will be demonstrating the new FOCUS cost adaptor, as
well as the rest of its platform capabilities, at the FinOps X
conference in San Diego from
June 19-22.
Mike Fuller, CTO of the FinOps
Foundation and a member of the FOCUS steering committee, said, "We
created FOCUS to provide an open, common specification for cloud
billing data. The project's purpose is to help define a standard
way for cloud service providers to provide billing and usage data
to help simplify multi-vendor cost analysis for end users. We are
grateful for members like CloudZero that make adoption of this new
standard easier."
Erik Peterson, founder and CTO of
CloudZero, said, "CloudZero has been a contributing member of the
FOCUS project since its inception. Our newly announced AnyCost
integration further demonstrates our commitment to supporting its
growth and adoption within the FinOps community."
