How do I migrate an Azure VM to a new subnet?

Stop and deallocate VM, edit NIC IP config to target subnet, apply. Zero data loss if planned.

What's the best way to scale Azure VM compute?

Use Size resize for vertical bumps—no redeploy. Match SKU to workload, like D2s_v5 for FTP.

Absolutely—schedule for off-hours, cuts bill 50-70% for intermittent use.

Ever wonder why your Azure bill spikes despite light usage? One VM resize and shutdown schedule later, costs plummet—here's the data-driven playbook.
