Microsoft Azure cost management in cloud-based software development

Software development, testing and R&D activities very often require considerable cloud resources. At the same time, these are dynamic environments which can lead to ballooning cloud costs. Public clouds such as AWS, GCP or Microsoft Azure have native mechanisms to manage and optimize spend, but they can’t prevent you from incurring unwanted and uncontrolled costs. This led us to create our own cloud cost optimization solution. In this, the final part of our three-part series, we will show you how to build an Azure cost management solution.

How to optimize GCP costs in cloud-based software development

Scalability, availability and high availability—these are the advantages that make public clouds a must have in modern software development. But they can cost you dearly if you don’t manage your cost spending carefully. In the second part of our three-part series on cloud cost optimization, we will show you how to get the GCP bill under control and avoid unexpected cloud costs. Following up on our initial blog about AWS, we’ll now turn to building a cost management solution for the second public cloud: Google Cloud Platform (GCP).

AWS cost optimization — keeping cloud-based software development costs under control

Public clouds are now indispensable in modern software development. They offer flexibility, scalability and high availability. At the same time, cloud cost management can be tricky, and generate unwanted spend that will be a considerable burden for the overall budget of your software project. In our three-part series on cloud cost management, you will read how to keep costs under control in the three most popular public clouds: AWS, GCP and Azure. In this first installment, we will present our approach to AWS cost optimization.
