Understanding the Total Cost of Ownership for Cloud Development Environments

Standard cloud TCO models miss a major cost driver: the dev and test environments running on public cloud infrastructure. This whitepaper breaks down how local cloud development reshapes total cost of ownership across five key DevOps metrics, and where the savings actually come from.

The dev and test environments running on public cloud are one of the largest — and least-tracked — drivers of cloud spend. This whitepaper shows how running that work locally reshapes your total cost of ownership.

What's inside:

  • Why non-production environments drive most cloud waste
  • What local cloud development is, and how teams test without a cloud account
  • A pharmaceutical case study with real before-and-after results
  • The impact across five DevOps metrics — and how each lowers cloud TCO
    ‍

Who it's for: enterprise engineering, platform, and FinOps leaders sizing the true cost of their development lifecycle.
