Governance provides the framework of rules, standards, and controls that keeps your Azure environment secure, compliant, and cost-efficient. In this post, we’ll explore three essential Azure governance tools—Azure Policy, Azure Blueprints, and Role-Based Access Control (RBAC)—how they differ, how they work together, and how you can use them to create a well-governed Azure environment. https://dellenny.com/azure-governance-tools-policies-blueprints-and-role-based-access-control-rbac/

When it comes to cloud computing, one of the biggest challenges for businesses is understanding how pricing works. Microsoft Azure, one of the leading cloud platforms, offers several pricing models that let organizations choose how they want to pay for resources. This flexibility helps businesses manage costs more efficiently based on their workload patterns, budgets, and performance needs. In this guide, we’ll break down the three main Azure pricing models — Pay-As-You-Go, Reserved Instances, and Spot Instances — and explain how they work, their advantages, and when to use each. By the end, you’ll have a clear understanding of how to make the most of Azure’s cost optimization options. https://dellenny.com/azure-pricing-models-explained-pay-as-you-go-reserved-and-spot-instances/How to Use the Azure Pricing Calculator Effectively – A Step-by‐Step Guide
When you’re planning to move workloads to Microsoft Azure, one of the first questions that comes up is simple but important: How much is this going to cost? Cloud pricing can be tricky. Between different regions, service tiers, storage options, and licensing models, it’s easy to underestimate or overestimate costs. Thankfully, Microsoft provides a free tool called the Azure Pricing Calculator to help you get a clear, customized cost estimate before you deploy anything. In this guide, we’ll walk through how to use the calculator effectively, the best practices for accurate estimates, and a few tips that can help you plan your Azure budget with confidence. https://dellenny.com/how-to-use-the-azure-pricing-calculator-effectively-a-step-by%e2%80%90step-guide/Understanding Azure SLAs: What 99.9% Really Means
When you start using Microsoft Azure, one of the first things you’ll come across is the concept of a Service Level Agreement, or SLA. It sounds straightforward — a promise of reliability from Microsoft — but the details can be confusing. You’ll see numbers like 99.9%, 99.95%, or even 99.99% uptime, and it’s easy to assume they all mean near-perfect reliability. But what does “99.9%” actually mean in real-world terms? How much downtime does it allow? And how should you plan your architecture to meet or even exceed those targets? Let’s break it down in plain English. https://dellenny.com/understanding-azure-slas-what-99-9-really-means/
Can't setup MFA on Azure personal account
I'm unable to use the az cli with a personal account because of MFA requirements. I have a free trial of Azure which I'm using for some basic testing. I'd like to deploy some Bicep from az cli, when I do I get: AADSTS50076: Due to a configuration change made by your administrator, or because you moved to a new location, you must use multi-factor authentication to access 'subscription GUID'. The docs say to go to Per-user multifactor authentication and enable MFA. I did this, but I can't set it up. Trying to login to https://aka.ms/MFASetup gives: You can't sign in here with a personal account. Use your work or school account instead. My personal account is the only user on the tenant. There is no other account I can use and I'm prevented from setting up MFA on it.
Removing Tags
Hi All, I am just wondering whether it is at all possible to entirely remove a work item tag from Azure DevOps so that it doesn't appear within the tag dropdown and cause confusion? No resources online actually touch on this so I thought I'd ask here. The goal essentially being to remove certain work item tags from the project/organization. Thanks
Unable to access Azure Portal with my Microsoft Account
Hello, I would like to request assistance regarding an issue with my Microsoft Account. My Microsoft account email address removed for privacy reasons is currently unable to properly sign into Azure Portal (https://portal.azure.com/). Every time I log in, it keeps showing error messages related to tenant access, and I cannot perform any normal operation inside Azure. It does not allow me to proceed, create resources, or even navigate the portal pages. Since this account is the one I planned to use for my Power Platform / Developer environment setup, this issue is now blocking all further development work. Could you please help me check the tenant status of this account, and fix the access issue so that I can properly use Azure Portal again? Thank you very much for your assistance. Best regards
