Back to Writing. For the past year, I’ve been quiet here. Not because there wasn’t anything to say—but because there was *too much*. After the brutal events of October 7th in my homeland, words didn’t come easily. Like many, I focused on what mattered most: safety, resilience, and simply holding on. Now, slowly, it’s time to return to routine (illusory one…who knows). And with it, I will try to come back to share my challenges in the professional space I’ve always loved—where innovation meets optimization, and FinOps is more than a buzzword: it’s a necessity. Late 2024 into 2025 for me: AWS Bedrock, AI agent services, and machine learning workloads are accelerating. Usage is spiking. GPU-based infrastructure is scaling fast—but so are the costs. GenAI is running wild. Budgets can’t keep up. Visibility is patchy. Blind spots are growing. Awareness is lagging behind adoption. But as always—FinOps isn’t about saying *no* to innovation. It’s about enabling it—with cost context, accountability, and speed. In the coming episodes, I’ll share some of my practices, experiences, and experiments navigating FinOps in the age of AI. Like learning path to start, observe and tag inference profiles, models and usages, “thinking and reasoning” impact on cost, batching, caching, context management, AWS Billing and Cost Management MCP usage, communicating AI costs with developers, AI budgeting, highlights from professional events. More to come.

💡 AI costs are rising. Your FinOps strategy can rise faster. Join us at the FinOps Weekly Summit 2025, where Alon Shvo, Product Team Lead at Finout, will lead a session on: The Challenges with AI Costs: Bringing FinOps Discipline to LLMs and Beyond. As teams scale from AI experiments to production with OpenAI, Bedrock, and SageMaker, hidden cost drivers appear. Alon will show how FinOps brings clarity by tracking spend, uncovering what drives costs, and making AI budgets fully accountable. 🕓 When: October 23, 2025, at 10:20 AM EST 📍 Where: FinOps Weekly Summit 2025 Register now and secure your spot: 👉 https://lnkd.in/evmfFdzF
