## How to estimate?
31+
32+
> [!IMPORTANT]
33+
> The most straightforward approach is to use the [Azure Provisioned Capacity Calculator](#provisioned-capacity-calculator) and the [Azure Pricing Calculator](https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/pricing/calculator/) to generate a more relevant estimate. If the specific model (LLM) is not yet available in the dropdown, we can leverage rough estimate.
