Azure Commitments, Saving Plans, Reservations: How WE do it
Cloud costs can be reduced by committing to spend a specific sum on specific services (Reservations) or "All-you-can-eat" (Savings Plans). And that's not all.
It's easy to get confused by the variety of commitment options and their conditions.
We want to clarify it for you and share our practical advice from years of helping SAMexpert clients reduce their Azure bills by 30-50%.
We'll tell you how we do it so you can learn from us.
