when I see the pricing plan for azure services it says .0075 x hours, so if I did that on the first day of march and there are 31 days in march would I be charged 744 dollars for having it everyday in march or just when I use it, and what constitutes use?

    @Mark Lefler@NCI , As TP suggested, please share more details about the service and the SKU that you are referring to.

    As you mentioned about $0.075/hour, I presume you are referring to Azure App Service Basic tier (B1).
      To get a more accurate estimate of your costs, you can use the Azure pricing calculator to estimate the costs for the specific services and usage patterns that you anticipate. You can also monitor your usage and costs in the Azure portal to ensure that you are staying within your budget.

      However, this is under the assumption that the service is running continuously for the entire month. If you only use the service for a portion of the day or turn it off when not in use, your costs would be lower. Also, note that this pricing only covers the base resources for the App Service plan, such as the underlying compute. You may also be charged additional fees for features such as storage, data transfer, and custom domains.

    I’m just sharing an estimate/snip from the pricing calculator based for a month.  User's image

        You may always leverage Azure provides tools to monitor your usage and costs, so you can keep track of your spending.     Reference:
