I need to do some consolidation on my company's Azure estate, especially around App Service Plans.

In the past, we would typically create a new App Service Plan for each service we deployed as this would aid us with departmental cross-charging as each ASP would be tagged with each department's cost code.

We now have a massive sprawl of ASPs and I suspect none of them are probably running anywhere near capacity, even at S1 level so we're now looking to a more simplified model. We probably also have over-scaled ASPs that we planned but are never actually needed.

Not ever having used Graph Explorer (in anger) can someone please point me in the right direction on where I can find the CPU% instrument data so that I can execute a query to pull this data out.

I know you can "share -> download" from each individual ASP but with the amount of ASPs we have, doing that manually would take forever to do

Once I have that data locally, I can then some basic "what-if" scenarios on around consolidating ASPs and get more cost efficient with our Azure spending.

Thanks.

    You probably won't be able to use resource graph explorer for something like that. Assuming you're sending logs to a log analytics workspace for all your ASPs, you'll need to query log analytics and get logs from there - is that something you've already considered? – Ked Mardemootoo Jun 16 '21 at 14:39
  • @KedMardemootoo TBH, No it is not something I have considered because, actually, I currently don't know how to or where the data would get logged - Any suggestions on where to start looking ... My primary role is a developer and I leave all the Azure deployments to our platform team ... but they're no help here – Chris Hammond Jun 17 '21 at 07:44
