I would love to hear more about what kind of expense you mean for RU/s? Our SQL Azure db is growing so much we are paying a fortune for and would love to get your thoughts on comparison.

I don't have the figures on the top of my head and I can't go in and take a look since I've left the project already, but I'll see if I can get a hold of the figures through other means.

but what I remember, we're spending at the minimum of 150$ a week to a maximum of 300+$, with no paying clients onboard, and looking at the usage , it's automatically scaling between 10K - 100K RUs, let's just say that in most days we're on 50K RUs.
