Requiring deep understand of technologies and cost models, to reduce operation costs of infrastructure. This can range from simple reserved compute power, and unused resource decommissioning, to re-architecture of applications for a more cost optimised design.

Modification of guardrails and governance to ensure cost is considered at the earliest relevant point in the Software Development Lifecycle. Positively influencing the culture of the development team, so that everyone is building and designing services with costs in mind. That the first version of a service is already the most cost efficient.
