Question

Hi,

I am not using the virutal machine every saturday and sunday, so i am thinking to create a automation task to start virutal machine and power off the virtual machine.

Then i need to know how much cost it take for month.

And is there any way to create the tasks for free:)

Answer 1

It is billable - details are available at https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/pricing/details/automation/

The monthly cost would depend on the frequency of usage.

If you review the pricing information, you'll notice that there are free units included in the service, so you don't pay for the service unless your usage exceeds the free units limit
