FinOps: put cost guardrails into the flow (without friction)

Cloud cost explodes mostly when guardrails don’t exist in the workflow. A platform can make good choices the default.

The best FinOps policy is the one teams follow without thinking about it.

1) Costs come from exceptions

Forgotten environments, oversized instances, unbounded logs… most overruns come from local decisions.

2) Guardrails inside modules

Examples:

  • limits per environment
  • budgets/quotas
  • mandatory cost tags
  • “reasonable” defaults

Conclusion

In Argy, those rules become versioned standards: fewer debates, more control.
