Description

The Azure Monetary commitment is a pre-payment made to Microsoft for their Azure cloud services.

The forecast for Azure spend over the next 3 years has risen significantly compared to previous years due to the migration of various services to the cloud in support of Stonewater's IT strategy.

The following systems/services form the basis of the increased costs:
• ASR - Disaster Recovery
• Veeam Offsite Backup
• Azure Virtual Desktop (AVD)
• Azure Integration Services (AIS)

Other services such as Sentinel/Defender, which are already covered through the pre-payment model, will continue to be supported and will contribute to the overall costs.
