CEO, Clinic to Cloud

Cost pressure

Growth made Azure ownership harder to see

The review treated cost as an engineering and operating concern.

  1. Azure subscription costs had risen as the service grew.
  2. More developers could make resource ownership and cost effects less clear.
  3. The DevOps process needed updates to match the platform.

Change method

Remove or scale down resources in a measured order

The team identified underused resources and ranked actions by likely benefit and risk. It then applied and measured the changes over two weeks while watching system performance.

  1. Review Azure resources and the DevOps process.
  2. Find resources that can be removed or scaled down.
  3. Order the changes by benefit, risk, and service effect.
  4. Measure spend and performance after each set of changes.

Savings boundary

The 46% result belongs to this Azure environment

The figure compares measured Azure spend after the project changes with the project baseline. It is not a guaranteed saving for another environment, and it does not describe a patient or clinical result.
