Microsoft Azure Fundamentals AZ-900 Practice Question
Your CEO has requested an analysis for a strategic planning meeting to estimate the financial implications of transitioning from running servers in a colocation facility to using Azure's cloud services. The report needs to detail upfront capital expenses (CapEx) and operational expenses (OpEx) of the existing setup against the projected cost of operating in the cloud over the next five years. Which Azure tool would provide the most detailed analysis tailored for this scenario?
You selected this option
Azure Advisor's cost optimization report
You selected this option
Pricing Calculator, complemented with manual CapEx calculations
The Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) Calculator provides an analysis inclusive of both capital expenses (CapEx) and operational expenses (OpEx), offering a detailed comparison between on-premises infrastructure and Azure over an extended period. It factors in long-term financial implications, making it the appropriate tool for preparing the requested report. In contrast, the Pricing Calculator is more suited for planning immediate operational budgets based on current resource usage without accounting for CapEx or long-term financial planning. Azure Cost Management + Billing and Azure Advisor are tools used for ongoing cloud cost monitoring and optimization recommendations, respectively, and are not designed for initial long-term cost analysis.
