Cost to run a durable function

Matt Dorsey 151

I have a durable function that completes the following job:

takes a zip file of many pdf documents
unzips it
scans/ocr the pdfs using form recognizer
moves the pdfs into another folder
moves the json (scanned pdfs) into another folder
indexes the json documents for cognitive search
emails the client to let them know the job is complete

My question: I'm processing A LOT of pdfs with the job outlined above... Is there a tool in Azure that can tell me the cost to just process one pdf? That way I can give my client an accurate projection for the cost of processing tens of thousands of PDFs.

Hello @Matt Dorsey,

We appreciate your question posted on the Microsoft Q&A Platform.

I'm uncertain whether you can obtain such detailed cost information. You may want to visit the Azure Price Calculator to estimate the cost for a single Azure Function. You can also check ff advance server

You can use the Azure Pricing Calculator to estimate the cost of processing one PDF. Just input the details of your job, like the number of PDFs, and it'll give you a projection. This way, you can provide your client with an accurate cost estimate for handling a large batch of PDFs. Best of luck with your project!

Hey Matt, I see you're dealing with a hefty number of PDFs and want to figure out the costs tied to processing them via Azure services. So, here's a little step-by-step guide to get you started.

First things first, head over to the Azure Pricing Calculator. It's a handy tool that lets you get a rough idea of your expenses.

You'll need to break down your process and check out the prices for each part:

For the durable function part, you're looking at the cost depending on how many times it gets triggered and how long it runs.

Next up, the Form Recognizer will charge you based on the number of pages it's gotta scan through.

Don't forget to consider the storage costs. You'll need space for those PDFs and JSON files, right?

For indexing with Azure Cognitive Search, it's all about how much data you're indexing and the number of search operations you'll do.

Lastly, sending out emails probably won't cost much, but it's worth checking if it affects your budget.

So, here's what you do: calculate the cost for a single PDF by adding up these services, then multiply by the total number of PDFs you've got. Voila, you have a ballpark figure!

And remember, always add a little extra on top of your estimate for those just-in-case moments. You know how it is – better safe than sorry.

Monitor the usage of each service involved (Azure Functions, Blob Storage, Form Recognizer, Cognitive Search, and email service). Use Azure's pricing calculator to determine the cost per execution, storage, OCR, indexing, and email. This will allow you to calculate the cost for processing one PDF and then scale it to tens of thousands best source to utilize or get information do visit Free Fire Advance.

Hi @Matt Dorsey

Thank you for asking this question on the **Microsoft Q&A Platform. **

I don't sure that you can get that level of details for your costs,

You can go to the Azure Price Calculator a get an estimate of the cost for one Azure Function

If you have already run some tests with your Azure function, you can see how much have you spend in your Azure Cost Management >> Cost Analysis

Hope this helps!
