You will get SQL Server & Azure Cost Review – Licensing, Performance & Risk
Project details
I help organisations reduce SQL Server and Azure SQL costs while identifying hidden performance, security, and compliance risks.
This review is not a generic “cost report.” It’s a practical, experience-driven assessment based on over 20 years working with enterprise SQL Server estates and cloud workloads.
I will review your current SQL Server and/or Azure SQL setup, focusing on:
– Licensing and edition usage
– Azure SQL and VM sizing efficiency
– Performance risks that drive unnecessary spend
– Security and compliance gaps that often surface during audits
You’ll receive clear, prioritised findings and actionable recommendations — not vendor marketing or theoretical advice.
If you’re preparing for an audit, facing rising Azure bills, or simply want an independent second opinion, this review gives you clarity and confidence before you make costly decisions.

Frequently asked questions
About Jason
SQL Server & Azure Cost Optimisation & Risk Reduction Specialist
Manchester, United Kingdom - 5:51 am local time
With over 20 years’ experience working with SQL Server in enterprise and regulated environments, I specialise in independent reviews and second opinions — not selling migrations, rebuilds, or unnecessary cloud spend.
My work is typically engaged when teams want clarity around:
* SQL Server licensing and cost optimisation
* Azure SQL right-sizing and cloud spend reduction
* Performance and configuration health checks
* Security and compliance readiness
* Independent DBA advisory for internal teams
Clients value my ability to explain complex database and cloud decisions in plain language, identify practical savings, and provide recommendations that can be acted on immediately — whether by in-house teams or external vendors.
If you suspect your SQL Server or Azure environment may be costing more than it should, or carrying hidden risk, I’m happy to review and advise.
