Welcome to Episode 1 of Behind the Build!
In this kickoff episode, we’re joined by João Pimentel (Lead Engineer at Randoli) to unpack one of the biggest challenges in the Kubernetes ecosystem—cost visibility.
Whether you're a platform engineer, SRE, or part of a FinOps team, this episode breaks down:
- Why Kubernetes cost management is such a pain
- Common issues like over-provisioning, idle workloads, and lack of visibility
- Real-world challenges teams face while trying to understand their cloud spend
- A high-level walkthrough of OpenCost and how it helps
- Where OpenCost may fall short—and how tools like Randoli’s Cost Management build on top of it
We don’t just talk tools—we dive into the why behind the tooling and the how of building better visibility into your Kubernetes workloads.
