Pipeline: Correct Compute snapshots with premium storage

Correct Compute snapshots if storage premium

Overview

Migrating compute snapshot storage from premium to standard can lead to significant cost savings. Premium storage is more expensive due to its higher performance and reliability. By moving snapshots that do not require premium performance to standard storage, you can optimize costs without compromising on essential storage needs.

This pipeline allows you to specify a collection of compute snapshots with premium storage and then either send notifications or attempt to perform a predefined corrective action upon the collection.

Whilst it is possible to utilise this pipeline standalone, it is usually called from either:

Run the pipeline

To run this pipeline from your terminal:

flowpipe pipeline run azure_thrifty.pipeline.correct_compute_snapshots_if_storage_premium \
--arg 'items=<list(object({
title = string
name = string
resource_group = string
subscription_id = string
conn = string
}))>'

Use this pipeline

To call this pipeline from your pipeline, use a step:

step "pipeline" "step_name" {
pipeline = azure_thrifty.pipeline.correct_compute_snapshots_if_storage_premium
args = {
items = <list(object({
title = string
name = string
resource_group = string
subscription_id = string
conn = string
}))>
}
}
