Azure Health Check - A snapshot of your Azure potential

The Azure Health Check is the first step towards better understanding and optimizing your Azure resource usage, wastage, and security. Powered by the Surveil platform’s powerful analytical capabilities, the Azure Health Check provides a summarized snapshot of current spend, potential savings opportunities and risk. The Health Check is free to run, requires read-only access, and is a secure means of uprooting hidden opportunities to right-size, optimize, secure and enhance your Azure environment.

What the Health Check Report covers ?

To maximize the value on offer, the Azure Health Check report contains both summary and deepreachin insights – starting with a brief overview of findings on our AI Optimization Recommendations dashboard. The report then dives beyond this initial surface-level view to explore the cost, usage, wastage, and optimization opportunities across highly relevant areas of Azure – including Kubernetes, Databricks and Reserved Instances.

AI Optimization Recommendations

As well as providing the high- and low-end saving estimates, the AI Optimization Recommendations also offer a summary of cost savings across several Azure technical categories.

- Reserved Instances spend and virtual machine eligibility recommendations.
- Zombie Resources and the cost of resources lingering after the deallocation of a virtual machine.
- VM Optimization, offering opportunities to right-size underutilized virtual machines.
- Hybrid Benefits allowing for Windows licence usage in Azure.
- Storage Optimization, considering specification vs cost vs usage.
- Idle/Oversized Services and where downgrading might be necessary.
