FinOps Foundation premier member achieves enterprise certification by advancing FinOps practices while contributing to community

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 1, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- The FinOps Foundation, a part of The Linux Foundation's non-profit technology consortium focused on advancing the people and practice of cloud financial management, announced today that JPMorgan Chase has achieved the FinOps Certified Enterprise certification, a key measure of advanced FinOps practices that help guide best practices for others and validate the work of the FinOps Foundation.

Collaboration between business, finance and technology teams to improve cloud financial management to get the most value out of every dollar spent in the public cloud is a key element to FinOps.

FinOps Certified Enterprises are organizations that strive for continuous improvement with FinOps practices while meeting criteria involving training, knowledge sharing and other community contributions and collaboration.

"Congratulations to JPMorgan Chase for its hard work and leadership in developing a global FinOps practice," said J.R. Storment, FinOps Foundation Executive Director. "JPMorgan Chase currently has the most FinOps certified practitioners of any enterprise. The Enterprise certification further enhances its standing as a leading FinOps innovator."

Additionally, JPMorgan Chase was the first member to complete the FinOps Assessment, a programmatic assessment created by the FinOps Foundation to provide members with a high-level overview of the current state of their FinOps program and to identify further targeted areas of investigation or development.

"JPMorgan Chase is thrilled to become one of the first FinOps Certified Enterprises as this designation is aligned with our values and goals," said Andrew Feig, Managing Director, Cloud Engineering at JPMorgan Chase. "Delivering FinOps is a shared responsibility, and adoption of FinOps practices by our engineering community has contributed greatly to this recognition."

In addition to this certification milestone, the FinOps Foundation recently hosted its largest in-person event, FinOps X, with over a thousand attendees and over 140 speakers including Beth Marki, Executive Director, Cloud Financial Management at JPMorgan Chase. Marki highlighted that "this recognition reflects the culmination of a multi-year journey uplifting the FinOps community by driving enablement and education throughout the technology community."
