To stay competitive, organisations must shift from reacting to incidents toward preventing them with intelligent automation, full-stack observability, and continuous optimisation.

Legacy cloud operations models often rely on delayed alerts, manual responses, and firefighting after the fact. This leads to longer outages, higher costs, and reduced confidence in platform stability, especially as environments grow more complex.

Explore Microsoft’s Azure Operations Management Principles as a framework for building scalable, proactive operations in the cloud.

Cloud Platform Optimisation (CPO) gives your team the tools, processes, and expert support needed to anticipate problems, resolve them faster, and optimise continuously. What Azure CPO enables:

• Full-Stack Observability: Monitor infrastructure, apps, and services via Azure Monitor, Log Analytics, and Application Insights.
• Proactive Alerting: Configure thresholds and intelligent routing to prevent alert fatigue and reduce time to response.
• Auto-Healing Workflows: Trigger automated remediation based on predefined incident conditions.
• Performance & Cost Forecasting: Use historical data to identify trends and take preventive actions.
• Operational Playbooks: Implement documented workflows for reliability, cost control, and incident response.

Azure CPO transforms operations into a strategic advantage, giving your teams more time to build and less time recovering from failures.
