Managing the cloud can be a daunting task. With increasing demands for controls on security, cost management, and compliance, it is essential to adopt a vigilant approach to how cloud environments are utilized.

By default, the cloud environment is highly flexible. It allows us to swiftly build architectures, systems, and applications. We have the freedom to rapidly experiment with cloud-native services and third-party products. The cloud empowers us to deliver innovative custom services to our customers. However, this flexibility comes with significant risks. If not managed properly, it can lead to fragile architectures and risky situations.

In this presentation, we will explore how to leverage built-in tools to govern your cloud environment effectively. Although the examples will be provided using Azure, the concepts are applicable to other cloud providers as well.

Key Takeaways:
• Understanding the importance of cloud governance
