Four pillars. One platform. Every cloud.
SKYXOPS covers every stage of cloud FinOps — across AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud. One platform for engineers, finance, and FinOps.
Daily telemetry. Every cloud. Every team.
Once resources are live, SKYXOPS aggregates daily cost telemetry across AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud into one view. Persona-specific dashboards hand the right cut of the data to Finance, Engineering, FinOps, and DevOps without five tools to stitch together.
Multi-cloud aggregation
Daily cost rollups across AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud in a single pane. Multi-org and multi-subsidiary views roll up spend across business units without stitching spreadsheets.
Persona-specific dashboards
CFO (variance, forecast, board-ready), Engineering (per-service, per-team, per-deploy), FinOps (commitment coverage, anomaly queue), DevOps (operational cost per workload). Plus more views as roles grow.
Anomaly detection
Surfaces unexpected cost movements so they reach someone before they compound. No thresholds to hand-tune.
AI & LLM cost tracking
Track spend by model and team across OpenAI, Anthropic, Amazon Bedrock, Azure OpenAI, Google Vertex, and self-hosted GPU. Token-level attribution and model-routing cost trends.
Commitment coverage & utilization
Live tracking of Reserved Instances and Savings Plans — coverage ratio, utilization rate, expiration alerts. Know what's locked in and what's about to lapse.
Alerts where teams live
Slack, Microsoft Teams, email. Tune per cost center, severity, or persona — the right signal lands in the right channel.
Visibility is just the starting point. The platform doesn’t stop at showing you the number.
LLM-powered savings, ranked by impact.
SKYXOPS runs LLM-powered analysis across your cloud footprint and surfaces the savings you could take — ranked by impact so you don’t waste time on 0.3% wins. Every recommendation is proposed, never applied: SKYXOPS stays read-only on your infrastructure, and the final change remains your call.
Rightsizing
Instances and databases running larger than their workload needs. Surfaces candidates across EC2, Azure VMs, Google Compute, RDS, managed databases with workload-pattern evidence.
RI & Savings Plans recommendations
Sustained-usage workloads without commitment coverage — SKYXOPS recommends purchase scope, term, and projected savings. Pairs with Monitor's coverage/utilization tracking so nothing expires unexpectedly.
Idle & zombie cleanup
Idle compute, unattached volumes, unused load balancers, zombie resources (no network traffic 30+ days) — surfaced with usage evidence and flagged for safe teardown.
Storage optimization
Object storage tier changes (S3, Blob, GCS — Standard → IA / Archive). Block storage rightsizing (EBS, Managed Disks, Persistent Disk). Snapshot cleanup (orphaned and expired). Database backup retention & log analysis.
GPU-specific optimization
Under-utilized GPU fleets, spot-GPU candidates, right-tier matching for training vs. inference workloads. Pairs with Monitor's AI & LLM cost tracking to surface the biggest GPU-spend opportunities first.
Enterprise discount qualification
Volume-discount opportunities and enterprise-agreement qualification, matched to your usage patterns. Realized-savings tracking shows which recommendations shipped and their post-apply impact.
Prevention and optimization only matter if governance holds. That’s where SKYXOPS closes the loop.
The FinOps backbone — tags, attribution, showback, audit.
Cost allocation and chargeback is one of the unsolved problems in cloud — and also one of the biggest leaks in FinOps programs. SKYXOPS gets it right by enforcing the tag policy twice (PR-time and post-deploy), rolling up attribution across multiple dimensions, and generating chargeback any finance team can defend.
Tag-IQ Automation
Policy enforcement twice — PR-time (via Cost Guardrails) and post-deploy scan. Tag Matrix dashboard for compliance visibility. Auto-tagging proposes tag values from resource context. Gap remediation opens PRs to fix missing tags.
Multi-dimensional attribution
Roll up spend by tag, team, project, and cost-center — simultaneously. Every dollar traceable to its owner across any slicing dimension Finance needs.
Hierarchical budgets
Nested budgets — org → department → team → project → service. Headroom tracking shows remaining budget by scope, updated as approvals happen. Cost Guardrails enforces at the PR, so every approval sees the impact on headroom before it's granted.
Showback & chargeback
Allocate actual cloud spend to the teams or products that consumed it. Monthly breakdowns that Finance can post to the ERP; chargeback ledgers that scale across business units.
Cloud resource inventory
Centralized view of every cloud asset across AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud. Auto-discovery of new resources as they deploy. Config tracking for historical compliance. Tag audit inline.
CSV audit trail
Every cost decision, every approval, every policy exception — exportable to CSV for Finance audit, compliance review, or ERP reconciliation.
Attribution, chargeback, and audit complete the shaft. But the highest-leverage moment — the pull request, before anything deploys — is where SKYXOPS starts.
Every cost decision, made at the pull request.
Cost Guardrails plugs into the tools your engineers already use. On every infrastructure change, it projects the monthly cost, routes approval to the right owner by your budget rules, and — if the change would breach budget — sends a deny signal your CI/CD pipeline enforces. No guessing. No post-deploy surprise.
IaC cost projection
Scans Terraform, CloudFormation, and Kubernetes/Helm changes. Projects per-resource monthly cost from a live pricing catalog.
CI/CD integration
Native integration with GitHub, GitLab, and Azure DevOps. Comment posted on the PR with cost breakdown + approval state.
Budget-aware approval routing
Rules configured in SKYXOPS send each cost-impacting PR to the right owner — engineering lead, finance controller, cost-center owner — based on the budget it touches. The approver sees the PR's projected impact on remaining budget headroom before deciding.
Deploy-deny signal
When a change exceeds budget policy, Cost Guardrails sends a deny decision to CI/CD. Your pipeline acts on it — hard-block, or warn-and-proceed — you decide.
Tag policy scan at PR-time
Checks incoming resources for required tags before deploy. Post-deploy scan still runs (see Govern) — Cost Guardrails catches issues earlier.
CLI & REST API
Developers can preview cost impact locally before pushing. Public REST API for programmatic access to projections, approval state, and policy decisions — the only platform surface with a public API today.
Four pillars, one platform. Here’s how SKYXOPS lands in your environment.
Fits every environment.
Deployment model
SaaS (hosted by SKYXOPS) or self-hosted in your environment. Same platform, same capabilities.
Data residency
Self-hosted: everything stays in your environment. SaaS: only infra metadata is sent to SKYXOPS (for analysis + recommendations); billing data, workload content, and credentials stay in your cloud.
Integrations
CI/CD: GitHub · GitLab · Azure DevOps.
IaC: Terraform · CloudFormation · Kubernetes/Helm.
Alerts: Slack · Teams · email.
Clouds: AWS · Azure · Google Cloud.
