The Hidden Cost of Cloud Compliance

Episode 12 of Cloud Computing with Fexingo tackles the often-overlooked expense of regulatory compliance in the cloud. Lucas and Luna explore how frameworks like GDPR, HIPAA, and PCI-DSS drive up infrastructure costs far beyond compute and storage. Using a real-world example of a mid-sized healthcare company moving patient data to AWS, they break down the specific compliance burden: encryption overhead, audit logging, data residency requirements, and the staff time needed to maintain certifications. They compare how AWS, Azure, and GCP handle compliance differently, and offer practical advice on budgeting for these hidden costs. If you're running workloads in regulated industries, this episode will save you from surprises on your next cloud bill. #CloudCompliance #GDPR #HIPAA #PCI-DSS #AWS #Azure #GCP #DataResidency #CloudCosts #RegulatoryCompliance #Encryption #AuditLogging #Infrastructure #CloudComputing #Technology #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #CloudStrategy Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
