The “bright shiny new object” syndrome. Organizations really didn’t know their TCO and value of their own IT but shifted into finance mode where they think they saw cheaper. Next we have the subscription model where the vendor has great insight into their customer’s usage patterns allowing them to optimize profit and revenue. There is no greater business model then the subscription. For the vendor that is. FinOps can be great as long as it stays in it’s lane otherwise decisions are made based on perceived cost and not value. By the way, FinOps is the new bright shiny new object.

The mistake was that customers were convinced that their vendors were “partners.” Fuck that
