What is Azure Advisor?
Azure Advisor is a cloud optimization service that analyzes your Azure resources and provides recommendations to enhance reliability, security, performance, operational excellence, and cost efficiency. It helps you save time by offering actionable insights that you can implement immediately or schedule for later.
Accessing Azure Advisor
You can access Azure Advisor through the Azure portal or via the API. Additionally, you can set up notifications to receive alerts about new recommendations, ensuring that you are always up to date with potential improvements.
Azure Advisor Dashboard
When you log in to the Azure portal, the Advisor dashboard provides a personalized view of recommendations across all your subscriptions. You can filter these recommendations based on specific subscriptions, resource groups, or services to focus on the areas most relevant to you.
Categories of Recommendations
Azure Advisor organizes its recommendations into five key categories:
Example Use Case
Imagine you have several virtual machines running in your Azure environment. Azure Advisor might recommend resizing some of these VMs to better match their workloads, thereby improving performance and reducing costs. Additionally, it might suggest enabling security features like Just-In-Time (JIT) VM access to enhance security.
By implementing these recommendations, you can ensure that your Azure resources are not only optimized for current needs but are also prepared for future demands.
