This report gives the capabilities to calculate the price for Azure Virtual Machine and do a What if analysis on the prices.

Azure VM Price Calculator Page

This page provides the similar capability as like Azure Pricing Calculator. This allows to change the usage by Hours , Days , Months to get the total price. By choosing a RAM , Disk Size , Core lists all the possible Instances available which will help to make a comparison between difference and make a choice.

Azure VM Price Analysis Page

This page provides the option to do a What if Analysis

1) Compare the Virtual Machine Pricing Across Regions and cost benefit to move the VM

2) How much price impact will be in case of increasing the No of VMs or by adjusting the usage Hours Per Day , Usage Days Per Month , Usage Months Per Year.

Date Set

The data set is got from the JSON in the below link

Great job pulling this PowerBI template together, really helpful in the work I'm doing. However, is it possible to get the prices in UK Pounds instead of US dollars? I've only just started using PowerBI so got a lot to learn, but I have downloaded your pbix file and had a look at it on my desktop. Have played around by say chaing the source data from en-us to en-uk for example, but it's changing the currency to get the correct data displayed in the right format. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks

The page https://azure.microsoft.com/api/v1/pricing/virtual-machines/calculator/?culture=en-us seems to have been deleted yesterday, any other that can be used?
