Azure Virtual Machine Deployment Tool (AVMD)

AVMD Splash Screen

If you’re running your Development and Test environments within Microsoft’s Azure Cloud, you’re already aware of the major benefits it offers, such as the ability to quickly scale up and down. This creates an agile environment for developers that frees them from the constraints of on-premise infrastructure.

However, this convenience comes at a cost. Microsoft bills by the minute for each virtual machine you run within their Cloud offering, which means that reducing your monthly OPEX cost is crucial. The solution is to shutdown, deallocate, and power back on those virtual machines when they are not needed. But automating this process in Azure requires an in-depth knowledge of PowerShell and the setup of complex Azure runbooks.

Fortunately, there’s an easy-to-use and cost-effective solution available. The Azure Virtual Machine Scheduler is a tool designed specifically for this reason. It will shutdown, deallocate, and power back on the virtual machines (shutting them down alone will not stop you from being billed), all according to a schedule that you specify. It will also email you throughout the process of any successes or failures.

With the Azure Virtual Machine Scheduler, you can easily optimize your Azure DevOps (Development and Test environments) and reduce your monthly OPEX costs. You can download it now and request a free 30-day trial to try it for yourself.
