Prism for Azure

Optimise cloud spend. Maximise business value.

Azure gives organisations the flexibility to innovate, scale and transform. The challenge is ensuring cloud investment continues to deliver value as environments become more complex, consumption grows and business priorities evolve.
 
Prism for Azure provides the intelligence needed to understand where Azure investment is delivering value, where inefficiencies exist and where opportunities lie to optimise spend. It combines cost visibility, utilisation insights and investment intelligence to help organisations make informed decisions that balance performance, governance and financial outcomes.

See more than cloud costs

Many organisations have visibility of Azure spend. Far fewer understand whether that spending is aligned to business outcomes.
 
Prism for Azure goes beyond traditional cost management by providing context around cloud consumption, helping organisations understand not only what they are spending, but whether they are achieving the value they expect from that investment.
 
With Prism for Azure, organisations can:
 
  • Gain visibility into cloud spend, consumption and trends
  • Identify inefficiencies and underutilised resources
  • Improve reservation and commitment utilisation
  • Discover rightsizing opportunities
  • Balance cost optimisation with performance requirements
  • Make better investment decisions based on data rather than assumptions

Azure investment intelligence 

Prism brings together the information needed to continuously optimise Azure investments rather than relying on one-off cost reduction exercises.

Cost intelligence

Understand where Azure budget is being spent, how resources are being consumed and where costs are changing over time. Prism provides visibility into spend patterns, helping organisations identify inefficiencies and opportunities for optimisation.

Commitment optimisation

Ensure reserved instances and cloud commitments are delivering the expected value. Prism helps identify underutilised commitments, potential waste and opportunities to improve utilisation across Azure estates.

Resource efficiency

Identify opportunities to optimise infrastructure through rightsizing recommendations and utilisation analysis. Prism helps ensure resources are appropriately aligned to business requirements while maintaining performance.

Continuous optimisation

Cloud environments evolve constantly. Prism helps organisations maintain visibility and continuously assess whether cloud investment remains aligned to changing business priorities, strategy and demand.

Prism for Azure vs Prism CMP

While both solutions help organisations manage Azure effectively, they solve different challenges.
 
Prism CMP focuses on operational cloud management, governance and administration. It helps IT teams manage resources, enforce policies and operate cloud environments at scale.
 
Prism for Azure focuses on investment intelligence and value optimisation. It helps technology and business leaders understand whether Azure spending is delivering measurable outcomes and where improvements can be made.

Better together

Prism CMP and Prism for Azure are designed to complement one another.

Prism CMP provides the operational control needed to manage Azure environments efficiently. Prism for Azure provides the intelligence needed to understand financial performance, investment effectiveness and optimisation opportunities. Rather than focusing solely on reducing costs, organisations gain the insight needed to optimise investment, redirect budget where it creates greater impact and continuously improve the value they receive from Azure. Together they deliver a complete approach to Azure management:

  • Manage and govern cloud resources effectively
  • Understand consumption and investment performance
  • Identify optimisation opportunities with confidence
  • Align cloud spending to business objectives
  • Continuously improve value realisation over time
