B . Yes

Answer: A

Explanation:

The FinOps team is effectively a partner and not a direct manager. For example, if a cloud developer needs 10 Virtual Machines, development should be the gatekeeper and not FinOps teams. Instead of a focus on centralizing spend approvals, the FinOps teams should be focused on building

visibility of the spend to the appropriate areas to create accountability for each business unit.
