Just wrapped up an incredible experience at FinOps X 2024 in San Diego along with the Platform9 team: Chintu Parikh, Peter Fray, Madhura Maskasky, Chris Jones. This was my first FinOps X conference and I found this community to be very welcoming, and I was pleasantly surprised by how eager everyone was to engage in conversations. The emphasis on connections, culture, learning, and peer insights stood out, encouraging everyone to find people with similar goals and challenges, share ideas, and learn together. The highly focused nature of the event and shared goals of the community is also very evident: everyone here is using public clouds extensively and everyone here is looking to extract the most business value from their cloud investments and bringing together engineering, finance, and operational teams to solve the problem. And let's not forget the fantastic food and parties! The party on the USS Midway was a massive hit. A huge thank you to the FinOps Foundation team and the community for an unforgettable conference. Can't wait for next year!
