Managing your Azure Costs – How to Avoid Ballooning Budgets

Have you ever had an Azure bill that was a total surprise? I have some awesome war stories, and the most memorable was when our Azure costs skyrocketed 🚀 unexpectedly after someone put a Superpowers poster up in the foyer at SSW. I know what you’re thinking, how on earth did a simple poster on a wall send me a crazy Azure bill? 🤔 Well it wasn’t the poster that was the problem, it was our receptionist… our AI receptionist called SophieHub. It uses Azure facial recognition to welcome people to the office. Sophie kept recognizing the faces on the poster as a person and sending it off to Azure 24/7. Ouch.

Once you’ve had a bill shock, you’ll start looking at ways to stop it from happening again in the future. Even better, if you are proactive, you’ll never encounter bill shock.

Read on to see how you can save yourself a Azure cost shock
