How to lower your costs in Azure - more than just reservations! en

Let me tell you a story.
A story that happened many times in many different companies. A story of a Team suddenly faced with a cloud cost-reduction challenge. Where do they even start?
The same happened at my time so let me share with you some lessons learnt along the way.
- Should you reduce your costs or optimize them? And why the difference matter?
- Cost savings tips on: Reservations vs savings plans, Azure Hybrid Benefit, Compute, Azure App Service Plan, etc.
- (How) Do you save on Security? Microsoft Sentinel
- Can you save on AI?

Those "Business People" - they just don't get me! - how to talk IT to non-IT leaders en

Once upon a time, in a distant and faraway land, there were two kingdoms: The County of IT and The Principality of Business. These two sovereign realms were situated closely on the same island, yet they rarely engaged in communication due to their distinct languages.

"The inhabitants of The County of IT," lamented the Prince of The Principality of Business, "are excessively fixated on minute details. They fail to comprehend the grander picture - our responsibility lies in the well-being of our people! We must attract investments to foster economic growth and, ultimately, improve the lives of our citizens."

Frequent sighs of exasperation emanated from the Viscount of the Country of IT, who often remarked, "The residents of the Principality of Business are overly superficial. They do not grasp the significance of the city's infrastructure and laws, which are essential for our citizens' freedom of movement and their ability to establish businesses. Let's not even begin discussing matters of security!"

A palpable sense of mutual aversion persisted. Both nations existed in separate worlds, each shielded by substantial barriers, even though they shared the same island and a common goal - ensuring the safety and happiness of their citizens.

That is, until an adversary came knocking at their doorstep...

Quantum computing - the next great thing en

The one who rules the quantum computer rules the world.
Forget the AI, zoom in and explore the meanders of the quantum world.
I hope you have all read by now that top tech companies are working on a Quantum Computer. And it is going well.
*Why should you care?*
IF or rather WHEN we break the quantum barrier and make the computers error-prone, it will impact the world as we know now.
Why?
Security.
Whenever you talk to a security specialist they will tell you that no IT security solution can guarantee 100% protection. It can "decrease the surface of the attack" or "decrease the ROI of the attacker" - what does it mean? Simply put, there's an assumption that if it would take a hacker 34 years to break encrypted data - the data is protected. After all "ain't nobody got time for that", right?
Which does not mean the encryption is unbreakable. An encrypted string is nothing more that a long string of random letters, numbers and signs. The computer that would want to break such a string would have to work through all possible combinations of all the possible signs. Which you can imagine takes time and effort.
For an "average" computer.
But not a quantum one.
Calculations that would take a regular computer 34 years can take quantum computer hours or minutes.
