Now that you are done with promoting the changes to the production, you don’t need to have the Staging Environment in Azure until we get a new requirement. So, in order to reduce the costs, we can go ahead and delete the Staging Environment. Let’s see how to delete the existing slots of the Azure Cloud Service.

Navigate to the Cloud Service, as shown below.
