SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Azure cost optimization by analyzing IaC and live resources to surface actionable savings and coordinate across teams.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Analyze Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) files and Azure resources to identify cost inefficiencies
  • Create individual GitHub issues for each optimization plus one EPIC issue to coordinate implementation
  • Validate savings with Azure pricing and provide executable guidance for implementation

Quick Start

Configure Azure and GitHub credentials and run the az-cost-optimize workflow to generate cost-optimization issues.

FAQPage Schema
How do I identify Azure cost optimization opportunities across Infrastructure-as-Code and live resources?▼

To identify Azure cost optimization opportunities, you analyze resource configurations and usage data from both IaC files and live Azure resources within a target subscription or resource group to surface actionable savings.

How do I automate Azure cost optimization tasks and track them for my team?▼

You can automate Azure cost optimization by generating individual GitHub issues for each identified savings opportunity, plus one coordinating EPIC issue to track implementation across your team.

Does this Azure cost optimization approach provide executable guidance for implementation?▼

Yes, Azure cost optimization validation includes generating precise, executable guidance featuring Azure CLI commands and Infrastructure-as-Code modifications where applicable to implement the savings.

Can I validate Azure cost savings against actual pricing before applying optimizations?▼

Yes, cost validation against Azure pricing is a core requirement, ensuring that identified optimization opportunities are quantified with accurate savings estimates before implementation.

What do I need to set up before running automated Azure cost optimization workflows?▼

You need to configure Azure and GitHub credentials to allow the workflow to read resource configurations and generate cost-optimization issues within your repository.
