The worldwide growth of Verigon Corporation has more than doubled its Azure subscriptions and resource usage. The increased complexity has made it difficult to forecast departmental expenses. Verigon needs a more granular method to track individual Azure resource usage costs by department.
What do you suggest as the first cost management step to obtain this information?
A) Use the Azure portal to apply a tag to each resource.
B) Under Cost Management in the Azure Portal, choose Cost Analysis.
C) Under Cost Management in the Azure Portal, create a monthly budget for each department.
D) Create a management group for each department.
E) Create a resource group for each department.
Explanation
Verigon needs to first tag each resource so it can be associated with the appropriate project and/or department. Tags are name/value pairs that enable you to categorize resources and view consolidated billing by applying the same tag to multiple resources and resource groups. Tags can be applied via the portal, the Azure (CLI) command-line interface, or the Powershell New-AzTag cmdlet. The Tag Contributor role, or higher, is needed for access.
Creating a budget under Cost Management would be a good way to monitor subscription usage and costs. However, resources must be tagged as the first step in correlating the data in cost reporting.
A resource group is a container that holds related resources for an Azure solution. It is not designed for cost tracking or management. However, a tag can be assigned to a resource group.
A management group is a container used for more efficient control subscriptions. That is not the focus of this scenario.
Choosing Cost Management, Cost Analysis would be a good way to monitor subscription usage and costs. However, resources must be tagged as the first step in correlating the data in cost reporting.
