The cloud vendor bill is just line items on compute/storage/network spend. Are there tools to go beyond the surface and help understand the costs, and optimize cloud consumption? (Note this is not a question of cost saving in the cloud, I have seen the Q&A on that topic in the forums).

We're a manufacturing enterprise currently using Rockwell FactoryTalk on the OT side, with our infrastructure traditionally built on VMware. As many of you are likely aware, the Broadcom acquisition has significantly increased VMware support costs, prompting us to evaluate alternatives as we plan our next infrastructure refresh. One option we're considering is Microsoft Hyper-V. However, Rockwell does not officially support or test FactoryTalk on Hyper-V, which raises some concerns. I'm reaching out to the community to ask: - Is anyone currently running Rockwell FactoryTalk on a Hyper-V infrastructure in production or test environments? - What has your experience been in terms of stability, performance, and supportability? - Have you encountered any compatibility issues or limitations? Would you recommend this approach, or suggest sticking with VMware (or exploring other options)? Any insights, lessons learned, or recommendations would be greatly appreciated!
