Azure Cost Optimization Review
Find out why your Azure bill keeps climbing — and exactly what to do about it.
Cloud spend rarely grows because the business grew. It grows because nobody owns it. Resources get provisioned, pilots go stale, reservations expire, and six months later finance is asking questions engineering can’t answer. This review gives you a straight, architecture-level answer — not just a list of unused VMs.
Who This Is For
Built for businesses running production workloads on Azure where the monthly bill has become a recurring surprise instead of a predictable line item. You don’t need to bring me a dedicated cloud engineer or a FinOps team — I work directly with whoever currently owns the subscription, whether that’s a single developer or a small IT team.
This is architecture-led, not a checklist of “right-size your VMs.” Cost problems are usually design problems wearing a billing statement.
Good Fit If You’re
- Seeing cloud spend grow faster than usage or revenue
- Unsure which resources are actually load-bearing
- Paying on-demand rates with no reservation strategy
- Preparing a budget and need a credible number, not a guess
What You Get
A fixed-price engagement with a clear deliverable — not an open-ended retainer.
Deliverables
- Full audit of your Azure subscription(s), resource usage, and spend patterns
- Identification of idle, oversized, or misconfigured resources
- Reserved instance and savings plan analysis
- Architecture-level recommendations — not just resource-level tweaks
- Executive report ranking savings opportunities by effort versus impact
Timeline
Typically 1–2 weeks, depending on the size and complexity of your environment.
Executive Report
You get a written, board-ready summary: what’s driving cost, what to fix first, and what the realistic savings opportunity looks like — in plain business language, not a raw billing export.
