Azure Cost Optimization · Belgium

Save up to 30% on your
Azure bill —
in just 5 days.

Most organizations using Microsoft Azure have no dedicated cloud specialist watching their costs. Resources pile up, servers run overnight — and every month you pay for it. I find the waste and fix it.

The Problem

Five things quietly raising your Azure costs

You don't have to make a mistake for this to happen. It affects most organizations that use Azure without a dedicated cloud specialist.

Ghost Resources

Old test environments and forgotten VMs nobody deleted — Azure keeps billing for all of it.

⚠ avg. €120–€340/mo

Orphaned Storage

Deleted VMs leave their disks behind — doing nothing but costing money every month.

⚠ avg. €80–€200/mo

Oversized Servers

Paying for a large VM when you only use 20% of its capacity is common — and expensive.

⚠ avg. €150/mo

No Cost Monitoring

Without alerts, you won't know costs are climbing until the invoice arrives.

⚠ invisible until too late

24/7 Dev Servers

Your team works 8 hours. Servers run 24. Scheduling off-hours shutdowns recovers significant spend.

⚠ avg. €200/mo
Where Savings Come From

Three tools. Three real numbers.

Not estimates — real figures based on the Azure tools used in every audit.

Azure Automation
€200
per month

Off-hours shutdown

Dev servers switch off automatically overnight and restart when your team arrives.

Azure Advisor
€150
per month

Right-sizing VMs

Identifies oversized VMs and recommends the correct tier — no performance loss.

Terraform IaC
€100
per month

Ghost resource cleanup

Old VMs and unused storage identified and removed with your review first.

Azure Monitor

surprises prevented

Real-time alerts

Alerts trigger before spending exceeds your threshold — before it becomes an invoice.

How It Works

Three simple steps to lower costs.

No long projects, no open-ended timelines. A full audit delivered in 5 working days — start to finish.

🔍Day 1

① Scan

I connect with read-only access and perform a full scan of your Azure environment — every resource, every subscription, every cost.

📌Days 2–4

② Spot

Every waste source is identified and tagged with an exact euro amount — idle VMs, orphaned storage, oversized servers, and more.

📋Day 5

③ Report

You receive a clear written report with all findings, exact savings per item, and a prioritized action plan — in English or Dutch.

Optional: Implementation included. Don't want to apply changes yourself? I handle everything via Terraform and Azure Automation — safely and transparently.

FAQ

Yes. I work remotely by default, but I'm fully available to visit your location for physical server work, hypervisor installation, or any hands-on infrastructure project anywhere in Belgium.
Your full written report arrives within 5 working days of me getting access. If your environment is larger, I'll let you know upfront.
If I can't identify at least 15% in potential savings from your current Azure spend, you pay nothing. That's a written commitment.
