Cost Optimization and Monitoring
Course
In this course, you will go over the best practices for understanding how cost management is an important aspect of a well architected framework. For each lesson, you will learn the fundamental concepts, how experts think about the topic, and then deep dive into the Azure offerings. Throughout the course, you will deep dive into how to design for a cloud optimized architecture instead of trying to apply the traditional on-premises architecture principles, how monitoring for cloud efficiency helps an organization bring transparency and visibility into cloud costs, and how to leverage automation of infrastructure autoscale as well as Azure available API’s for cost analysis to ensure cost transparency and savings.
