    Full Answer

    B.To estimate the cost savings of migrating on-premises workloads to Azure.✓ Correct
    The Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) Calculator helps you estimate the cost savings you can realize by migrating your workloads to Azure. You input your current on-premises infrastructure details (servers, storage, network, labor), and it generates a report comparing those costs to Azure.

    Common mistakes

    Confusing TCO Calculator with Pricing Calculator. TCO includes hidden costs like electricity and IT labor for on-premises setups.
