Managing cloud costs in Azure has become one of the biggest challenges for technology teams. While Azure offers flexibility and power, it also makes it easy to overspend. Resources are often left running, services are overprovisioned and budgets get blown without warning.
What’s changed recently is that artificial intelligence can now take on much of this burden. Microsoft has integrated AI into several core Azure tools. These intelligent features analyze usage, find waste, make predictions and take action before problems become expensive.
This article explains how AI helps real organizations cut costs on Azure without compromising on scale, security or performance. These are practical ideas, not theoretical ones, and they can be implemented right away.
