Turbonomic (Cloud) integration with Microsoft Azure Client/Custom Policies

See this idea on ideas.ibm.com

We define policies in Microsoft Azure to provide subscription management for Virtual Machine size limitations. Turbonomic cannot currently read custom Azure policy and will therefore recommend, and attempt, to resize certain VM sizes. These Turbonomic resize actions will then be prevented by Azure Policy and will obviously not complete. We need Turbonomic to have full integration with Azure Policy to ensure that all recommendations made by Turbonomic are valid and actionable from within Turbonomic using valid/up to date Azure policy state.

    Customer, is interested in having their SKUs exclusion policies from Azure be imported into Turbonomic. They want to have a single point (Azure) controlling their SKUs exclusions. Their understanding was that our "Imported Automation Policy" under Policy Management is actually discovering and importing their SKU policies. The "Imported Automation Policy" name in Turbonomic is misleading to customers, as it does not import their policies. They would like this feature added into Turbonomic so they have a single point of controlling their SKUs exclusions.

    Thank you for taking the time to provide your ideas to IBM. We truly value our relationship with you and appreciate your willingness to share details about your experience, your recommendations, and ideas.

    IBM has evaluated the request and has determined that it cannot be implemented at this time or does not align with our current strategy or roadmap.

    If you want your request to considered once again, please submit a new idea no sooner than in six months time.

    Thank you for bringing your ideas to us. If you have any additional feedback, thoughts or ideas, or if there is anything else I can do, please do not hesitate to reply to this message to continue the conversation.
