Pay-per-use licensing
Easily scale to thousands of cores and only pay for what you use, with no licence servers or complicated networking required. Just launch virtual machines (VMs) with the apps you need and pay for compute resources and software on demand.
Easy deployment and flexibility
Get started quickly by leaving the plumbing and resource management to Azure Batch. You have full access to your VMs, allowing complete customisation of your environment and the ability to troubleshoot any issues. Batch provides a flexible programming model and SDK so you can easily integrate your own pipeline and workflow.
