Microsoft Cost Management

As we mentioned last year, 2021 was all about modernization and transition to Microsoft Customer Agreement.

We are excited to announce the general availability of Azure Cost Management features for all Pay-As-You-Go and Azure Government customers that will greatly enhance your ability to analyze and proactively manage your cloud costs.

We are now excited to announce the general availability (GA) of Azure Cost Management experience that helps organizations visualize, manage, and optimize costs across Azure.

The Cloud Cost Management (CCM) APIs provides a rich set of APIs to get detailed reporting on your Azure usage and charges.

Enterprise customers choose Azure because of the unique value it provides as a productive, hybrid, intelligent and trusted cloud.

I’m thrilled to announce the preview release of Enterprise Cost Management within the Azure portal. With today’s release, Azure Enterprise Agreement (EA) users can view and analyze their subscription costs across different pivots, within the Azure portal.

Today, we are pleased to announce the addition of a new in-built role, Billing Reader role. The new Billing Reader role allows you to delegate access to just billing information with no access to services such as VMs and storage accounts.

This post details the release of the Azure Usage and Billing Portal, an open source application for tracking and viewing usage and billing across multiple subscriptions in Azure.
