Controlling Cloud Costs Register Now
FinOps is often referred to as cloud cost management or cloud optimization and is defined by the FinOps Foundation as “an evolving cloud financial management discipline and cultural practice that enables organizations to get maximum business value by helping engineering, finance, technology, and business teams to collaborate on data-driven spending decisions.” FinOps is a new approach for data teams to achieve cloud cost efficiency with granular visibility, AI-powered recommendations, and automated guardrails. Take a guided tour of cloud cost management in Unravel.
At the FinOps Crawl phase, the data will be less granular. You may start at the cloud provider and service level. In the Walk phase, you’ll want additional granularity to go into the application level. If FinOps data is only available at the cluster or infrastructure level, you may face challenges with allocation. In the Run phase, you may need to get to the user, project, and job level.
Unravel’s AI-enabled Data Observability and FinOps platform offers hundreds of powerful capabilities to help data teams troubleshoot issues, optimize performance, migrate workloads, and control costs. Ready to experience the power of Unravel? Here’s how you can get started.

Unravel began as a research project at Duke University in 2015, initially focusing on recommending optimized configurations for Hadoop MapReduce jobs to enhance performance. Over time, Unravel has expanded its capabilities by developing AI solutions that improve cost efficiency and workload performance across a wide range of technologies, including Databricks, Snowflake, Spark on Kubernetes, BigQuery, EMR, and more. These advancements enable Unravel to deliver precise insights and measurable savings to its users.
Unravel has extensive experience in developing a comprehensive knowledge graph alongside AI and ML techniques for cost and performance optimization. It analyzes a full stack of host metrics and telemetry data—including query metadata, compute details (e.g., warehouses, clusters), storage metadata, and network metadata—to pinpoint the root causes of inefficiencies and recommend actionable improvements. Unravel’s proven expertise is reflected in its success with numerous Fortune 500 companies and other leading enterprises across diverse industries, addressing real-world challenges and delivering measurable results.
Unravel stands out among FinOps and data observability solutions by excelling in all three FinOps stages: inform, optimize, and operate. Beyond merely providing cost information at the account, project, business unit, or Line of Business (LoB) levels, Unravel integrates app-level usage data to offer detailed chargeback and trend analysis at the workspace, cluster, and user levels.
For optimization, Unravel’s AI pinpoints root causes across queries, compute, and storage, delivering specific recommendations for query rewrites and adjustments to warehouse, cluster, and table configurations, ensuring actionable and effective cost savings.

Unravel does not access your data and treats all telemetry data with the highest degree of security.
Unravel prioritizes data privacy by ensuring that no data is sent back to your data warehouse, data lake, or lakehouse. Any data transfers are fully controlled by your team and occur only when explicitly configured. Our platform collects only job execution and configuration-related metadata, which is then utilized to generate tailored insights and actionable recommendations. This design upholds strict privacy standards while delivering valuable performance and cost optimization guidance.
Unravel uses TLS encryption – the same standard used by secure websites – to secure data in transit and at rest.
Unravel is committed to security and focused on keeping our clients and their data safe. The solution designed by Unravel manages customer data based on the five SOC trust services criteria — security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality, and privacy. We use TLS encryption, the same standard used by secure websites, to secure data in transit. Unravel is SOC 2-compliant, and has earned a Service Organization Control (SOC) 2, Type II certification.
Unravel ensures GDPR compliance for EMEA customers by offering efficient handling of data subject access requests and data breach notifications. It provides tools and processes that assist customers in meeting GDPR requirements, thereby safeguarding the protection and privacy of personal data.
