- Through real-world use cases, hands-on tutorials, and tool-driven workflows using GCP-native services.
Book DescriptionGoogle Cloud Platform (GCP) offers unparalleled scalability, but controlling costs is critical. FinOps on GCP is your practical guide to managing and optimizing cloud spend while maximizing business value. Designed for cloud architects, FinOps professionals, and platform engineers, this book covers key FinOps principles and how they are implemented specifically in the GCP ecosystem.
Starting with the foundations of FinOps and cloud economics, you'll explore GCP's billing structure, pricing models, and cost optimization strategies. You'll learn to create budgets, monitor usage with BigQuery and Looker Studio, and use tools like the Google Cloud FinOps hub to surface actionable savings opportunities. You'll also develop automation for reporting, implement quota guardrails, and drive accountability across teams.
Packed with hands-on labs and real-world scenarios, this book helps you establish a culture of cost transparency and financial accountability across engineering, finance, and operations for your multi-cloud environments.
By the end of this book, you'll be equipped to build a mature, automated, and collaborative FinOps practice on GCP.
What you will learn
