NEC’s Optimise the Cloud service reviews the fundamental optimisation targets within your Azure Cloud environment. The service focuses on delivering real benefits by discovering, analysing and reporting on cost optimisation targets. We’ll outline “best practice” governance and remediation policies to ensure inherent cost efficiency across your organisation from application development, through to production operational management. Using continuous monitoring of Azure service performance metrics enables identification of idle, unused, un-optimised or underutilised services, the identified services can then be remediated using policy-based workflows used to continually optimise services.
