# Cloud service categories in Cloud Cost Management for Microsoft Azure services

In Cloud Cost Management, provider services are grouped into service categories. This grouping enables you to use filters to focus your analysis on particular types of service \(for example, Compute or Database\). To perform more targeted analysis, you can filter for particular services within a service category \(for example, Amazon ElastiCache or Azure Database for PostgreSQL are services in the Database category\).
