🚀Exploring Cloud Resource Optimization: The Brazilian Challenge In today’s rapidly evolving tech landscape, cloud resource allocation is a key component of operational efficiency. However, in high-interest-rate environments like Brazil, traditional optimization methods fall short of delivering sustainable results. After exploring various strategies to optimize the use of non-managed VMs and managed DBs through long-term commitments and horizontal scaling, the results showed a consistent roadblock: operational efficiency alone does not guarantee positive Free Cash Flow (FCF) when considering currency risks and opportunity costs. 🔑 Key findings: 1.Even with flexible cloud resource allocation strategies, Brazil's economic conditions limit the effectiveness of pure operational optimization. 2-Innovation plays a critical role in enhancing productivity, meaning government intervention and corporate initiatives are essential to improve the country’s technological capacity. 3-Strategic financial planning and a broader stakeholder alignment are required to navigate these challenges effectively. This tool was built for educational purposes, and you can check out the full blog post and code on my GitHub. Feel free to explore the model and its applications! How are you balancing cloud efficiency with macroeconomic challenges? Let’s discuss how technology and innovation can help bridge that gap. #CloudComputing #Optimization #Innovation #BrazilEconomy #CloudStrategy #FinOps

“This whole journey helped me gain two significant achievements in 2024 that changed my life again. The first was being recognized as Elastic’s Certified Professional of the Year. And later, I got hired by Elastic as a senior customer architect — this has been my dream job for years, so it was a big accomplishment for me.” Learn more about João’s amazing journey from Contributor to Elastician in our latest blog post: https://gag.gl/m1Qht3

A big thank you to Daniel de Souza Casali for sharing his insightful blog on installing the OpenShift Container Platform quickly on PowerVS while using the Cloud private DNS. This method allows you to use your Enterprise Domain Name Server instead of creating a new domain or subdomain for the Cloud. https://lnkd.in/ervquC34 Topics covered in Daniel's blog 1) Configuring the IBM Cloud account for the Installation 2) OpenShift Installation 3) Preparing the install host for the OpenShift installation 4) Configure the Enterprise DNS for API access 5) Publish your Default ingress controller Privately (Recommended) 6) Optional – Publish your default ingress controller publicly. 7) Using a secondary ingress controller for public applications

Microsoft has announced a monumental investment of 14.7 billion Reais over the next three years to enhance cloud and AI infrastructure in Brazil. This is the largest single investment in the company’s 35-year history in the country. A study commissioned by Microsoft indicates that strong AI adoption could add 4.2 percentage points to Brazil’s GDP growth through 20301. Even minimal AI adoption could result in a 1.8 percentage point increase in GDP over the same period,

I just completed a hands-on training on OpenShift AI Now I can provision the platform to create a powerful data science workbench, run data notebooks on Jupyter, and more. I recommended it. I'm excited to put these new skills into action very soon! 🧑‍💻📊 #OpenShiftAI #DataScience #Python #JupyterNotebooks

Well this post made me recheck my unused AWS account and provisioned resources (and thanks Maciel Pocwierz for sharing this insight). It shows one of the cloud service weaknesses is that they can be missused by malicious actors and cause you a headache. #aws #s3 #cloudcostbilldepletionattack
