Azure fine print

Compute time of Azure is changed by the hour, but notice the fine print:

  • Deploy at 10:50 and delete at 11:10 will be charged as two hourd.
  • Again deploy at 11:40 and 12:10 delete will add another two hours to the bill, because the second deploy goes to ‘another’ instance/server which is registered two hours for you too.
  • Two webroles in a service means two hours.

Eventually I had to pay 25 hour compute within 8 hours of work.

About erictummers

Working in a DevOps team is the best thing that happened to me. I like challenges and sharing the solutions with others. On my blog I’ll mostly post about my work, but expect an occasional home project, productivity tip and tooling review.
