For this episode of the ITAM Executive, we’re joined by Riley Jenkins, a contributor to the FinOps Foundation FOCUS project, and Jason Kelly, Director of Anglepoint’s FinOps practice. FinOps Open Cost and Usage Specification (FOCUS) is a technical project working to establish an open specification for cloud billing data – something that is desperately needed in the industry. But as you’ll hear from Riley and Jason, standardizing cloud cost and usage measures across the multiple Cloud Service Providers, SaaS products, and other billing sources is no easy task.

Though it won’t be easy, the impacts of the FOCUS project will have wide-reaching benefits, it’s essential that ITAM and FinOps teams understand the new specification and stay up-to-date as it progresses.

By listening to this episode, you’ll learn:
  • What is FOCUS
  • Why FOCUS matters to IT asset management
  • The challenges of benefits of using standardized cloud cost and usage measures
  • How to learn more and get involved with FOCUS
  • And more
