**By using your cost tracking system, continuously evaluate and optimize the costs of resources, data, and paid support. Are there underutilized resources that can be retired, replaced, rebuilt, or refactored?**

You'll reduce costs by avoiding paying for resources that aren't fully utilized. Understanding pricing metrics can help you make decisions that are more aligned with your cost model. It can also prevent unwarranted billing. Resizing or removing underutilized resources, or even changing SKUs, can reduce costs.

- They're planning to improve the workload's reliability next year and know that doing so will increase their Azure costs, likely pushing the workload over their budget. They're considering asking for an increased budget for next year.

- The team decides that before asking for more money, they'll evaluate their current Azure and support costs to look for potential savings opportunities. They look into the per-resource, per-resource group, and per-tag breakdowns of cost in the existing cost tracking system and notice some unexpected spend.

- The team discovers that there are VMs running in their environment that were used for a deprecated build system and are no longer needed, there's a significant amount of old data in Azure Storage that can be moved to a less expensive tier, and they're paying for a support contract with their cloud provider that includes consultative hours that they are'nt using.

- The team finds that they have allocated more resources than are necessary to low priority flows, and can safely scale back the allocated throughput, while maintaining their performance requirements. Specifically, they can move away from over-provisioning to handle peak loads and implement a queue-based load leveling system instead.
