Private, hands-on workshops with the toolkit maintainers

FinOps toolkit kickstart

The FinOps toolkit set up on one of your billing accounts, with the setup choices worked through by your own team.

You bring

An Azure subscription, contributor rights, and the people who will own the hub.

We build together

A FinOps hub set up on one of your billing accounts, with exports flowing and the visualization layer connected.

You leave with

A FinOps hub running on one of your billing accounts, on live data, and a team that knows how to set up the rest.

Is this for you?

  • You need cost visibility and reporting beyond what the portal gives you
  • Your estate spans subscriptions, tenants, or billing accounts and no single view covers it
  • You want cost data you can shape for allocation and unit economics, not another demo
  • You need to show leadership where the money goes before you can ask for anything else

What we’ll build

We set up the FinOps toolkit with your team on one billing account of live data, and work through the choices your environment actually needs: networking, ADX or Fabric, remote hubs. Your team does the work with us, so it can set up the rest itself.

  • Ingestion scope and billing account setup (EA or MCA)
  • How to structure multi-tenant and multi-billing-account estates
  • ADX, Fabric, or a mix: choosing your platform and sizing the SKU and capacity
  • Network access, remote hubs, and what the hub itself costs to run
  • Setting up FinOps hubs and cost exports on one billing account of your live data
  • The visualization layer on top: Power BI, or FinOpsHubs.com where access is already in place, validated end to end
  • Monitoring and operations: keeping the hub healthy after we hang up

What stays with your team

  • A FinOps hub running on one billing account of your live data
  • Cost exports and ingestion for that account, validated end to end
  • The visualization layer connected on top: Power BI, or FinOpsHubs.com where access is already in place
  • The setup decisions your environment needs, made and understood: platform, networking, remote hubs
  • A team that can set up the remaining accounts itself

What the price covers

Included

One billing account, set up on your live data. The setup choices your environment needs are worked through together: networking, ADX or Fabric, remote hubs, and the options that apply to you. If your estate is larger, we talk through what it would take, and designing for it is its own piece of work.

What we tailor to you

Which platform you land on, how ingestion is scoped, and how the design accounts for your tenants, billing accounts, and network constraints.

If you need more than this

Rolling the design out across the rest of your estate is work your team can do with what it learned here. If you would rather we did it with you, we would be glad to, and we scope that separately so the price stays honest.
