Disentangling Compute Costs and Making Friends with your Finance Team

In this episode of Anti-Complex Kubernetes, we're joined by Rich Prillinger, Senior Director of Platform Engineering at Mezmo. Rich is responsible for one of the highest-scale platforms on the planet and, like most platform leaders, for making sure its costs are in line with the value it provides.

Our conversation with Rich will cover: The chasm between how Kubernetes operates (and is charged for by cloud providers) and the various business processes that exist at companies, especially finance ones; common disconnects between the platform and the business; and ways to close these gaps—and places where closing the gap may not actually matter!
