Client Overview:
A multi-national manufacturing company, on an aggressive acquisition journey, recently acquired 5 companies in 3 countries.
Challenges:
Using multiple public cloud providers meant 12 separate bills across the group, in multiple currencies and formats. Very difficult to budget these costs or allocate them to newly formed divisions. Also, waste was hidden in the complex output from each cloud provider
Solution: OpExx and their Finops platform
