//Overview
What is cloud cost optimization?
Cloud cost optimization reduces cloud spend without hurting performance by finding anomalies, idle and oversized resources and missed commitment discounts, and acting on them continuously.

//FAQs
Cloud Costs: questions teams ask
What is Kubernetes cost attribution?
It splits the cost of shared clusters across the namespaces, workloads and teams that use them, so each team sees its own spend.
What is the FOCUS specification?
The FinOps Open Cost and Usage Specification is a common format for cloud billing data, so costs from different providers can be compared and reported together.
How are reserved instances managed?
Commitments such as reserved instances and savings plans are bought and adjusted automatically based on actual usage.
When do budget alerts fire?
At thresholds you set, such as 50%, 75%, 90% and 100% of budget, with a forecast of month-end spend.
