Here’s what you already know about moving to the cloud: With the promise of reduced hardware, maintenance, facility and labor costs, cloud adoption can save your business a significant amount of money in operating and IT costs.

Simply moving workloads to a cloud environment won’t automatically result in cost savings, and many IT teams struggle to fully get their rising cloud spend under control. In fact, on average, 30% of all cloud spend is actually wasted—and it’s money that most organizations can’t afford to throw away.
So, how can businesses take control of—and lower—creeping cloud costs? The key is to stay on top of your Azure environment.
