Azure Management and Governance

    Azure provides a suite of management and governance services that help you manage, monitor, and govern your Azure resources. 

    Here are some key Azure management and governance services:

    Azure Policy: Azure Policy helps you manage and prevent IT issues with policy definitions that enforce rules and effects for your resources.

    Azure Cost Management and Billing: Azure Cost Management and Billing helps you understand where you're accruing costs in the cloud, identify and prevent bad spending patterns, and optimize costs to empower you to do more with less.

    Azure Monitor: Azure Monitor maximizes the availability and performance of your applications by delivering a comprehensive solution for collecting, analyzing, and acting on telemetry from your cloud and on-premises environments.

    Azure Service Health: Azure Service Health provides you with a personalized view of the health of the Azure services and regions you're using.

    Azure Advisor: Azure Advisor is a personalized cloud consultant that helps you follow best practices to optimize your Azure deployments.

    Azure Resource Manager (ARM): Azure Resource Manager enables you to work with the resources in your solution as a group. You can deploy, update, or delete all the resources for your solution in a single, coordinated operation.

    Azure Management Groups: If your organization has many subscriptions, you may need a way to efficiently manage access, policies, and compliance for those subscriptions. Azure management groups provide a level of scope above subscriptions.

    Azure Blueprints: Azure Blueprints enables cloud architects and central information technology groups to define a repeatable set of Azure resources that implements and adheres to an organization's standards, patterns, and requirements.

    These services provide a comprehensive solution for managing and governing your Azure resources, helping you ensure compliance with your organization's policies and optimize your cloud costs and usage.
