Business Use Case:

Partners need visibility into how long Azure VMs have been continuously running and how long they have been offline. This enables them to:

Identify VMs with excessive uptime that may require a reboot for stability/performance.

Detect VMs that have been offline for extended periods and need review or decommissioning.

Build actionable alerts and reporting around VM lifecycle states.

This supports proactive maintenance and resource optimization across all environments where Azure Inspector is deployed.
