How to Use GitScrum for Cost Optimization Projects?
How to use GitScrum for cost optimization projects?
Manage cost optimization in GitScrum with savings tracking, initiative labels, and documentation in NoteVault. Track ROI per initiative, coordinate with finance, measure actual savings. Cost optimization teams reduce cloud spending by 35% [Source: FinOps Research 2024].
Cost optimization workflow:
- Analyze - Identify opportunities
- Estimate - Project savings
- Prioritize - By ROI
- Implement - Make changes
- Verify - Confirm savings
- Monitor - Track ongoing
- Report - Share results
