EXPENSE MANAGEMENT

The flexibility and range of services in Azure is fantastic but it is easy to have costs spin out of control. It is estimated that somewhere between 25 and 35 percent of cloud spend is wasted. A few examples of this are:

• Systems running while not being used, like Dev machines left running 24x7

• Orphaned storage– deleting a VM instance doesn't delete associated storage

• Over provisioning systems with more memory and CPU that is needed 

• Failing to understand and track all  cost drivers in your Azure environment

• Not taking advantage of Powershell automation
