Why Cloud Spend Spirals

The Structural Issues Behind Uncontrolled Cost Growth

Overspend is rarely a tooling problem. It is usually ownership gaps, architecture drift, and no governance loop between finance and engineering.

64%
No Team-Level Cost Ownership
Spend remains centralised and opaque, so engineers cannot connect workload decisions to budget outcomes.
58%
Overprovisioned Compute Persists
Static sizing assumptions create long-lived waste across containers, VMs, and managed services.
71%
Commitments Mismatch Usage
Reserved plans and savings commitments are purchased without demand modelling, reducing expected ROI.
