Early Cloud Habits Creating Chaos at Scale

Cloud was supposed to make everything easier — and in many ways, it does. But as your environment grows into mission-critical infrastructure, it can also start to feel like the wild wild west.

If you’re looking to rein in cloud sprawl, stabilize costs, and build a foundation your teams can confidently scale on, this session is for you.
