The material is too dense to cover all the topics properly. This course should last at least 3 days, or even longer if it can be put into practice.

The trainer had a great deal of experience, but I was nevertheless looking forward to getting more concrete information and even practical experience of optimising FINOPS Azure.the training covered the 3 major current providers (interesting to be able to compare).I'm impatiently waiting for the support (for the moment I haven't received it yet).
