Summary
Migrating on-prem applications to Azure can improve scalability, reliability, and security while reducing costs. However, understanding and managing Azure costs during migration and post-migration can be challenging due to limited cost visibility and lack of correlation with resource utilization. Datadog Cloud Cost Management for Azure aims to address these issues by providing granular cost data across multiple billing accounts, mapping cost data to observability data, and enabling automated cost reporting. This helps stakeholders throughout the organization track costs, identify cost overruns, optimize usage, and maintain accountability, ensuring effective management of cloud costs during migration and beyond.
