    Hello anil kumar

    Welcome to Microsoft Q&A Platform, thanks for posting your query here.

    As you are already aware of Azure Well Architected assessment for SAP, other things you can look at that can help you optimize the cost of running SAP systems on Azure VMs are:

    Azure Cost Management and Billing documentation, which provides guidance on how to monitor and optimize your Azure costs (https://video2.skills-academy.com/en-us/azure/cost-management-billing/cost-management-billing-overview)/

    You can also refer to the Azure Architecture Center for SAP workloads, which provides best practices and guidance on how to optimize your SAP systems on Azure (https://video2.skills-academy.com/en-us/azure/architecture/reference-architectures/sap/sap-overview).

    Azure Advisor, which provides personalized recommendations to help you optimize your Azure resources for high availability, security, performance, and cost (https://video2.skills-academy.com/en-us/azure/advisor/) .

    Azure Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) calculator to estimate the cost savings of running your SAP systems on Azure compared to on-premises (https://azure.microsoft.com/en-in/pricing/tco/calculator/).

    You can refer to the SAP on Azure documentation, which provides guidance on how to optimize your SAP systems on Azure for cost, performance, and availability (https://video2.skills-academy.com/en-us/azure/sap/).

    Hope this helps.
