Cloud adoption with Microsoft Azure is the first step towards a reliable, scalable, and low-cost IT infrastructure. However, how do you use Azure Cost Management to manage and monitor your monthly costs to get the most value from Microsoft’s best-in-class solution?
Particularly in larger organisations, with multiple teams deploying Azure resources – do you have the tools and expertise to keep a tab on your organisation’s monthly spend and analyse Azure monthly spend versus your business requirements?
TriStratus’ Azure Cost Analysis offers you the visibility of your spend when using the cloud. It’s easy to spin up infrastructure or create virtual machines but if you’re not keeping a close eye on spending, costs can spiral quickly.
Through our review you’ll actually save money by uncovering overspend and unnecessary expenses, get help setting a budget, keeping an eye on spend—whether that’s daily, weekly, or monthly—and setting up notifications and alerts should spending start to creep over budgeted levels.
TriStratus helps you break down the details of your Azure spend, providing an in-depth look into exactly what everything costs, and support with grouping and filtering across your resources.
Get insights into exactly what a service is currently costing you, or if you’re trying to figure out why your bill is higher than you anticipated.
As an organisation’s use of Azure grows, it becomes more likely that resources are un-necessarily duplicated or the design becomes cost in-efficient. TriStratus offers the necessary ability to better monitor, manage and optimise overall costs.
The following services are included in Azure Cost Analysis Review:
- Reviewing invoices monthly.
- Analysing resource costs up to previous business day with different granularity (by day, resource or resource group etc).
- Downloading or integrating Azure spend data to third party solutions.
- Proactively conducting spend analysis and setting alerts or notifications.
- Configuring budget and spending thresholds and associated alerts.
- Optimising cost by identifying opportunities for savings.
- Options for cost optimisation (for example Reserved Instance Pricing) and suggestions for less expensive resource options.
- Ways to reduce redundancy and improve efficiency.
