We have seen a significant increase in infrastructure costs related to the valero and mdsd component log.

The containers of these components have inserted hundreds of thousands of entries with a log level debug and info.

We have taken steps to mitigate the problem by acting on retention but now the amount of operations performed has gone into the monthly calculation of the cost of the solution.Monitor - Microsoft Azure

    Hi @Francesco Landoni

    Thank you for reaching out to the Microsoft Q&A platform.

    From the presented case scenario, from AKS end we would recommend to decrease the log verbosity on the necessary/mentioned pods if possible, to decrease the number of messages sent and archived.
