FinOps brings financial accountability to the variable spend model
of cloud. As enterprises move aggressively to cloud, ownership of
technology and financial decision-making has shifted to the edges
of the organization away from procurement to engineering,
architecture, and product teams. FinOps, having grown from a fringe
practice to the de facto discipline managing cloud spend, is now
practiced by the majority of global enterprises. This second
edition provides a road map for adopting and maturing the
discipline drawn from the experience of hundreds of real-world
practitioners. Seven new chapters include forecasting, adopting
Finops, partnering with engineering, sustainability, the UI of
FinOps, and connectivity to other frameworks. There are updates
throughout the book, including 150 new pages of best practices and
dozens of new stories. Drawing on real-world successes and failures
of large-scale cloud spenders, the book outlines the process of
building a culture of cloud FinOps in your organization.
Engineering and finance teams, executives, and FinOps practitioners
alike will learn how to build an efficient and effective FinOps
machine for data-driven cloud value decision-making. With this
book, you'll learn: The DNA of a highly functional cloud FinOps
culture A road map to build executive support for FinOps adoption

This book is a summary of the history of discovering the moon. The
author has been involved in the Apollo program, working with its
samples and this book covers these efforts. It describes the
analysis methods of lunar samples and their interpretation to
understand lunar paleomagnetism. The book has adopted an historical
approach throughout, tracing the development of the ideas of the
Earth-moon system, of the birth of the space age, of paleomagnetism
and finally of lunar magnetism and its evidence for an early lunar
dynamo.
