Azure Scheduler allows you to declaratively describe actions to run in the cloud. It then schedules and runs those actions automatically. Azure Scheduler lets you create jobs in the cloud that invoke services inside and outside of Azure such as calling HTTP/S endpoints or posting messages to Azure Storage queues, or Azure Service Bus queues or topics.

Advanced user of Azure SchedulerIt's so easy to create an automation script based on specific criteria on order to allow you to run some code within your existing Azure infrastructure. From starting VM to whatever coming to your mind. The process is quite straightforward and they provided even tutorials in the portal in order to speedup the learning curve.
Nothing, it's a very nice way to automate anything you need. After using for a while you won't be able to automate as you did before.
Create a trial account on azure website, you'll receive credit up to 200$ in order to try for yourself during a month. After the trial period if you're happy with the overall functionality you could switch to a pay-per-use subscription. Otherwise your account will be closed and deleted with a $0 payment. Nice, isn't it?
I'm using a Scheduler to startup a VM that runs a specific tasks in order to collect some data from multiple websites and store it in a shared file storage. After the process in completed I use another scheduled tasks to shutdown the VM and free resources (saving money). The shared storage file could be accessed from anywhere with credentials so I'm able to investigate the details form my own laptop without incurring in additional charges.
