"I just spent 6 hours trying to figure out why our cloud bill jumped $50K last month."
The culprit? A single department running AI experiments that no one told finance about.
Sound familiar? ๐
This happens at literally every company I talk to.
Finance gets the bill. Engineering points fingers. Departments claim "it wasn't us."
Meanwhile, your CFO or VP Eng is asking questions you can't answer:
Which team is burning through credits?
What projects are driving these costs?
Who approved this spending?**
We got so tired of this monthly detective story that we built something to end it.
Now we can automatically track spending by department and send reports directly to team leads.
No more surprise bills. No more finger pointing. No more 6-hour investigations.

Too often I hear engineering leaders complaint about not being able to test isolated branches early enough. Here's how we, at DevZero, use DevZero to do branch-based testing.
@brian_scanlan What drove the final decision? Ergonomics of the cloud environment not feeling like local? Iโd wager than build tooling etc should be faster (centralized caching etc) - curious how you weighed pros/cons.
This is weird to say out loud, but I actually am kinda an expert in rate limiting, so I'm gonna explain some stuff.
About half of incidents in large-scale production systems involve having more requests than you can serve. There are two categories of this kind of incident:
One silent revolution happening that I don't hear much about:
Cloud-based development environments.
A game changer for companies that have this, and can set it up with a few clicks. Allows engineers to change between stacks *with ease* and opens up cross-domain collaboration.
Microservices are a technical solution to a sociological problem. The Amazon Prime Video โmonolith migrationโ which was really a #microservice logic restructuring captured a lot of attention; hereโs my take on #monoliths: https://t.co/V6QNofIJex
