THE CHALLENGE
These patterns cost you more than you think
Every data team faces them. The difference is whether you can see them coming.
The Finance question
They ask where the money goes. Your team scrambles for days, pulling data from three different sources. The answer is late and incomplete.
The unexplained spike
Costs jumped 30% this quarter. You can see it in the bill. But you can't explain why. Was it a new pipeline? A query gone wrong?
The ownership gap
There's a dashboard costing €3,000/month. Nobody knows who created it. Nobody knows if it's still needed. Nobody wants to delete it.
The ignored alert
Cost alerts fire. They sit in a Slack channel. There's no defined owner, so nobody investigates. The alert becomes noise.
If two or more resonate, you have a visibility problem. Not a cost problem.
