I am currently using the 30 days free subscription on azure. I have a python web app and azure cosmos mongodb. My free subscrption is about to end and I am planning to upgrade it. But I am not aware of how much monthly bill will be.?
Is there any way I can get approx idea of monthly bill on azure. Thanks
You can use the Cost Management service to determine your monthly cost. Also if you are aware of the resources you will be using calculate the estimation using the Azure calculator

Currently, I am working on establishing enterprise-scale landing zones for Cloud Adoption Framework in Azure.
I understand that inventory of the existing on premises applications and infrastructure is must to prepare the good landing page architecture.
How do I gather the inventory, is there any tools to do this? What and all should I include in the inventory?
For me i think you should use Microsoft Azure Advisor to give you an advice of the cloud infra you would need and Azure TCO to calculate the difference of the on premises and cloud infra or the Azure calculator to calculate the cloud infra price
Microsoft Azure Advisor: https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/services/advisor/
Azure TCO: https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/pricing/tco/calculator/
Azure Calculator: https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/pricing/calculator/
Also i advice you to look for the long time booking 3/5 years; like that you will gain a reduction of nearly 70% of the total price
Hope that my answer helped you and wish that you would vote me up if it did :D thanks alot in advance ....
I have a requirement to move my onprimises azure vms to cloud for only DR.
My current VM has 2012 Server with few applications installed with some critical Roles and the full size of VM is 1TB.
I need your help what are the charges applies and what are the things I should consider for my migration. We just opened a account with Microsoft on Azure nothing is configured and would like to understand the charges that i need to consider for this migration and components that are involved in this task.

I did a lot of searching but I guess Windows Azure's trial offers are constantly changing and there is a lot of different information over the internet. I am looking to develop a small website for learning purposes using Azure. My questions are:
1) Are there still 10 free websites after my 30-day trial ends?
If yes,
2) Can I use Table/Blob store after the trial period?
3) Can I use Azure SQL instance after the trial period?
From the horses mouth, so to speak:
Web Sites Pricing Details
You can run up to 10 websites for Free in a shared environment.
Azure Table Storage will cost, but it's not all that much. Storage Pricing Details gives you a run down, but I find their Pricing Calculator to be quite useful.
As an example:
100GB of blob storage
100GB of tables and queues
10 million transactions per month
is a grand total of $9.90 USD per month.
I'm looking at the Azure shared plan for $10 per month. Does it come with SQL Server and MySQL? I'm looking to host my personal site and project. I don't anything fancy. Just need the latest .Net support and if possible unlimited MySQL or SQL Server.
Azure pricing can be very difficult to figure out. So while this may not be a programming question, it sounds a lot like a deployment question that needs community help to answer.
Azure websites don't come with any kind of database support built in, unless you're loading a website image from the gallery.
Generally, any kind of relational storage will cost money. But it just doesn't have to cost a lot of money. Microsoft now has "Basic" SQL Database instances (in preview) that could cost as little as $2.50 per month, with up to 2GB of space. For the time being they still have "Web" tier databases for $10 a month up to 1GB.
Also, nothing in Azure is "unlimited." You always have a nominal charge for storage and data transfers out of the datacenter. So even a "free" website will still cost a buck or two per month for infrastructure charges.
Note that if you have MSDN Premium or Ultimate, you get a $100 to $200 per month Azure credit.
i have an idea of putting my blog on to Azure instead of a regular webhosting company.
The only thing i cannot figure out is if that will be cheaper or not. The good part is the getting-knowledge of Azure but on the other hand it is my personal blog and i really don't wanna spend to much money on it.
So do you have any idea of how the pricing works? I saw some calculator but didn't manage to understand the numbers.
Thanks in advance
You'd have to have a significantly-active blog to justify the costs of Azure. Aside from keeping a web role up and running (and just one instance chews up almost $90 monthly, as ZippyV stated), you'll also have to pay for data.
You do NOT need to invest in SQL Azure though. There's Azure table storage which is much better suited for your blog. It has a table structure, you can define entities (e.g. classes, maybe a BlogEntryClass) that are stored, and the storage costs will run you significantly less than SQL Azure (only $0.15 per GB per month, so your storage costs will likely remain well under a dollar a month for a blog, a small fraction of the cost of SQL Azure).
You'll also pay for bandwidth ($0.15 outbound per GB).
If this is a learning exercise, it's a great investment, but if you have an MSDN Premium account, you can host your blog there - you get 750 compute-hours monthly (enough to run a single role instance 24x7), 10GB table storage, and 14GB monthly outbound data.
Classic webhosting will be a lot cheaper for you. In Azure you need to pay for at least 1 instance (webserver) to run per hour. At then end of the month you will have to pay about 89$ if I remember correctly and that's without SQL Server.
If you want to learn more on how to develop for Azure you can download the SDK and run your project locally. You don't need to pay for it.
EDIT: you can find the pricing here. If you want to add SQL server you pay a minimum of 100$ a month.
