In this episode, cloud architect Greg Leonardo shares his expertise on optimizing cloud budgets in Azure. As the owner of Webonology and a Microsoft Azure MVP, Greg has extensive experience in cloud adoption and innovation.
During the discussion, Greg emphasizes the importance of architectural optimization in cost optimization, suggesting that small, well-architected solutions can greatly reduce costs. He also reminds us that the cloud is not a magic bullet, and that technology needs to continue evolving even in the cloud.
