Summary
This case study details how DO & CO automated cost recovery and eliminated manual recharges through the implementation of OneView Cloud and Managed Services. The document outlines the challenges faced by DO & CO, particularly the inefficiencies in their manual cost allocation processes across over 20 AWS regions. It describes the initial manual efforts required each month, including data extraction and allocation of EC2 usage, which were time-consuming and prone to errors. The case study explains the deployment of a cloud-native governance framework with automated allocation logic tailored to DO & CO's internal structure. It highlights the benefits of a modular FinOps foundation that allows for scalable cost allocation and accurate recharge processes. The results of this implementation included significant reductions in recharge time and improved operational efficiency, demonstrating the effectiveness of the automated solution in enhancing financial oversight and control.
