Cloud Governance: Accelerating Business Growth
In the podcast, Ez emphasizes that governance isn’t a bottleneck, but an enabler, allowing businesses to scale quickly and efficiently.
“Governance is an enabler. You want to do things right and fast. The traditional understanding of governance is you end up doing things right, but then you end up doing things slow.”

Optimizing Cloud Costs and Security
The discussion also covers key strategies for controlling cloud costs without compromising performance. Ez highlights how visibility into cloud spending is essential for making informed decisions.
“Are you paying for the value that you're getting? Is there any scope for you to optimize your spend without compromising the outcomes?”
