3. Eliminate waste: introducing a NEW IAM role permission for your tech solution owners to see & directly take action on these optimization opportunities.
Finally, perhaps our most exciting feature – and long overdue for FinOps – is that we are unlocking access to the Billing console for tech solution owners, so that these owners can get FinOps insights and Gemini Cloud Assist insights across all their projects, in a single pane. For example, if you want to give access to FinOps Hub or cost reports to an entire department that only uses a subset of projects for their infrastructure – without providing them with broader billing data access, but still allowing them to see all of their data in a single view – now you can, with multi-project views in the billing console. Multi-project views are enabled using the new Project Billing Costs Manager IAM role (or related granular permissions). These new permissions are currently in private preview so sign-up to get access. Now you can truly extend the power of FinOps tools across your organization with these new access controls.
So take this Spring to try FinOps Hub 2.0 with Gemini Cloud Assist, and do some spring cleaning on your cloud infrastructure, because as the saying goes, “With clouds overgrown, like winter’s old grime, Spring clean your servers, save dollars and time.” – well at least that’s what they say according to Gemini.
