Cost Playbook

Data platform spend scales automatically with usage. Accountability doesn't. This playbook shows data leaders how to attribute every dollar to the team and workload that spent it, then cut costs in a way that's targeted, defensible, and repeatable.

Cover of The Azure Data Platform Cost Playbook: Controlling Spend Across Databricks, Snowflake, and Fabric

Inside the Playbook

Attribute first, then optimize

Most cost advice starts with tactics: right-size clusters, suspend warehouses, buy reservations. Applied blindly, they produce small, one-time savings and a lot of friction with engineering. The organizations that keep data platform spend under control start by making it visible.

  1. Attribute

    Assign every dollar to the domain, team, and workload that consumed it, even on shared clusters and warehouses.

  2. Optimize

    With spend visible, apply platform-specific levers where they matter, and use commitments to lower your effective rates.

  3. Govern

    Put guardrails in place that keep costs under control without slowing engineers down.
