Join CloudBolt CTPO Kyle Campos and guest presenter Tracy Woo, Principal Analyst at Forrester Research, for an exclusive look at new findings from CloudBolt’s 2025 Industry Insights Report —revealing why most FinOps programs are falling short, and what the top 22% are doing differently.

Based on survey data from 350 senior IT executives, this session exposes the “automation illusion” plaguing the industry, where teams claim maturity while recommendations pile up unimplemented for weeks. You’ll discover why visibility without action has become little more than costly surveillance, how Kubernetes broke the traditional FinOps model, and why AI workloads demand an entirely new approach to cost optimization.

Learn how CloudBolt transforms private cloud from a cost mystery into a fully governed, chargeback-enabled environment. In three minutes, you’ll see automated rate cards, real-time cost previews, prevention policies that guide users to smart choices, and frictionless chargeback reporting.

Go from manually tagging to automated governance that just works. See how you can report on compliance, identify gaps, and prevent future tagging disasters in this 2-minute demo.

Simply having visibility isn’t enough. To KEEP costs in line, you need to shift left and continuously prevent costly new services from being provisioned in the first place.

Watch this 2-minute demo to learn how easy it is to create budgets, provision cloud resources, and check anticipated costs without the usual budget blowouts.


With the recent acquisition of VMware by Broadcom and with many changes looming in the near future, this large US insurance provider has decided to work with CloudBolt to ensure that any disruption or increases in cloud spend is minimized.

Performance vs. perception: the FinOps execution gap

We surveyed 350 senior IT leaders—CIOs, CTOs, and cloud decision-makers—to understand what’s working, what’s not, and where FinOps maturity is breaking down in practice.

In this ebook, you will discover:

  • Why most teams say they’re automated—but optimization still takes weeks
  • Where Kubernetes costs are spiraling—and why visibility hasn’t caught up
  • How governance efforts are stalling at the point of enforcement
  • What AI promises to solve—and what it’s making worse
  • 6 recommendations for turning FinOps intent into real-world action

Ready to Run: A FinOps Guide to Kubernetes Cost Optimization

Kubernetes is showing up in your cloud bill—whether you’re ready for it or not. Traditional FinOps practices fall short in this world of shared clusters, ephemeral workloads, and missing ownership. So how do you take back control?

In this ebook, you will discover:

  • Why FinOps breaks down in Kubernetes: Tagging fails. Forecasting becomes guesswork. Standard tools can’t surface what’s actually driving cost.
  • How to evolve through Crawl, Walk, and Run: Get a practical maturity model to build visibility, enforce accountability, and scale automation. 
  • What it takes to operationalize cost optimization: Move beyond dashboards—partner with engineering, automate rightsizing, and align with business outcomes.

Don’t just watch Kubernetes spend happen—optimize it. Fill out the form to get the guide and start building toward continuous FinOps.
