Achieve Cloud Billing Nirvana
Cloud adoption typically starts with a person or team playing around with the functionality on a small scale to investigate the opportunities. The billing of this conceptual work is normally enabled by use of a departmental credit card. For larger organizations this “shadow IT” approach can be happening across multiple teams. Over time, projects scale up and companies are left with disjointed and escalating billing issues with little control or visibility. N4{Foundation} provides a unified view of all billing under one invoice that can be represented to provide breakdowns across projects or departments. This increased level of governance provides clear visibility of cloud usage and the opportunities for reduced spending.
