Welcome to June ☀️
We’re staying busy this summer – supporting our customers on-site and making the most of key industry events. We recently sponsored and attended both Realize Live Americas and FinOps X, and both were fantastic opportunities to connect, learn, and share insights with peers.
As we wrap up Q2, we’re turning our focus toward the rest of the year, ensuring we’re ready to help you maximize your transformation initiatives in the months ahead.
Read on for details on where we’ll be speaking and presenting, new software releases, enhancements, announcements, and other tidbits!
