It provides data residency in Germany with additional levels of control and data protection. You can also sign up for a free Azure trial.
General purpose
Balanced CPU-to-memory ratio. Ideal for testing and development, small to medium databases, and low to medium traffic web servers.
Bs-series
Bs-series are economical virtual machines that provide a low-cost option for workloads that typically run at a low to moderate baseline CPU performance, but sometimes need to burst to significantly higher CPU performance when the demand rises. These workloads don’t require the use of the full CPU all the time, but occasionally will need to burst to finish some tasks more quickly. Many applications such as development and test servers, low traffic web servers, small databases, micro services, servers for proof-of-concepts, build servers, and code repositories fit into this model.| Add to estimate |

Constrained vCPUs capable
These new VM sizes are optimized for database workloads like SQL Server or Oracle that often require high memory, storage, and I/O bandwidth, but not a high CPU core count. They constrain the VM vCPU(s) count to reduce the cost of software licensing, all while maintaining the same memory, storage, and I/O bandwidth. The licensing charged for SQL Server or Oracle will be constrained to the active vCPU(s) count while the compute cost, which includes OS licensing, remains the same one as the original size based on “underlying vCPU(s)”. These new VM sizes allow customer workloads to use the same memory, storage, and I/O bandwidth while optimizing their software licensing cost.

Linux support
Support for certain Linux virtual machine images in the Azure Marketplace is available from the publisher. In some cases, it’s provided by the publisher for free. In other cases, we charge by the minute for the right to receive support. The total charge for running a Linux virtual machine is the support rate (if applicable) plus the Linux compute rate. Microsoft does not provide support for Linux images in the Azure Marketplace.
Free trial, MSDN, BizSpark, and Microsoft Partner Network member benefits (monetary credits) don’t apply to publisher provided Linux support, which is billed separately.
Canonical Ubuntu Server Linux images
Customers who deploy virtual machines from Canonical Ubuntu Server Linux images available in the Azure Marketplace are entitled to receive patching from Canonical for those virtual machines at no additional charge over the compute rates.
OpenLogic CentOS-Based Linux Images
Customers who deploy virtual machines from OpenLogic CentOS-based Linux images available in the Azure Marketplace will be entitled to receive patching from OpenLogic for those virtual machines at no additional charge over the compute rates.
IP address options
Every Azure Cloud service containing one or more Azure Virtual Machines is automatically assigned a free dynamic virtual IP (VIP) address. For an additional charge, you can also get:
- Instance-level public IP addresses—A dynamic public IP address (PIP) that is assigned to a virtual machine for direct access.
- Reserved IP addresses—A public IP address that can be reserved and used as a VIP address.
- Load-balanced IP addresses—Additional load-balanced VIP addresses that can be assigned to an Azure Cloud Service containing one or more Azure Virtual Machines.
Support and SLA
- Free billing and subscription management support.
- Flexible support plans starting at $29/month (Note—Microsoft support does not include support for Linux images in the Azure Marketplace, though in some cases Linux publishers offer support per the plans above). Find a plan.
- Guaranteed 99.95 percent connectivity for multiple instances. Read the SLA.
FAQ
General
-
No. All new virtual machines have an operating system disk and a local disk (or “resource disk”). We don’t charge for local disk storage. The operating system disk is charged at the regular rate for disks. See all virtual machines configurations.
-
Read our Azure Reserved Virtual Machine Instances FAQ.
-
You can find more information about spot virtual machines on our website.
-
A temporary disk is storage that’s attached directly to the deployed VM. Data on a temporary disk is lost once the VM is shut down. If you need persistent storage, there are a number of types and sizes of persistent data disks available that are charged separately. Please see storage pricing for information. For persistent VM storage, we recommend that you use Managed Disks to take advantage of better management features, scalability, availability, and security.
-
Maybe. If the status says “Stopped (Deallocated),” you’re not being billed. If it says, “Stopped Allocated,” you’re still being billed for allocated virtual cores (not the software license itself). Full details on virtual machine states are available on the documentation page.
State Billed Details Starting Yes The initial starting state of virtual machines as they’re going through the boot cycle. This period is billed as the virtual machines are running. Running (Started) Yes The running state of the virtual machine. Stopped Yes You are billed for allocated cores, but not software license.
Note—To put a virtual machine in “Stopped” status, use the power option within the virtual machine, not from the Microsoft Azure classic portal.Deleted (Deallocated) No Cores are no longer allocated to the virtual machine, and are no longer billed.
Note—The only way to stop all virtual machines in a cloud service is to delete both the staging and production deployments. -
Virtual machine prices include local disk storage only. You can see the cost to attach Premium (SSD based) and Standard (HDD based) disks to your virtual machines on the Managed Disks pricing page.

Previously, all usage for A0, A2, A3, and A4 Standard and Basic virtual machines was emitted as fractions (for A0) or multiples (for A2, A3, and A4) of A1 virtual machines meter minutes. We heard this caused some confusion for our customers, so we’ve implemented a change to assign per-second usage to dedicated A0, A2, A3, and A4 meters. Because of this transition, the resource GUIDs for A0, A2, A3, and A4 virtual machines will change. If any of your billing routines rely on the resource GUIDs, they’ll need to be modified to take these new billing meters into consideration.
Deployment size Usage emitted as multiple of A1 through January 10, 2016 Usage emitted on dedicated meter as of January 11, 2016 A0 .25 of A1 hour 1 of A0 hour A2 2 of A1 hour 1 of A2 hour A3 4 of A1 hour 1 of A3 hour A4 8 of A1 hour 1 of A4 hour -
We charge for the number of full minutes your virtual machine is running, so you are not billed for any extra seconds. In this example you would be billed for 6 minutes.
-
It’s a new preview feature for Azure Virtual Machines with private IP addresses. The internally load-balanced endpoint is only accessible within a virtual network (for virtual machines within a virtual network) or cloud service (for virtual machines outside a virtual network). Internal load balancing is useful for multi-tier applications where some of the application tiers aren’t public facing yet require load balancing functionality.
-
You can check the status of your virtual machines in the Virtual Machines tab, and also in the virtual machine Dashboard. If virtual machine status says "Stopped," you’re still being billed. Only "Stopped (Deallocated)" indicates you’re not being billed.
To ensure you’re not being billed, always stop virtual machines from the management portal. You can also stop the virtual machine through Powershell by calling ShutdownRoleOperation with "PostShutdownAction" equal to "StoppedDeallocated".
-
Each instance is charged for its data egress across regions.
-
No. Tax will be added separately.
-
Yes, through license mobility, if you have Software Assurance you can "bring-your-own-license" for all Virtual Machines supported server products.
-
No. The virtual machines offered under the three promos are only available for on-demand usage.
-
Currently the virtual machines offered under the three promos will be available for on-demand deployment till September 30th, 2019. The promo virtual machines deployed before that will continue to run. However, these virtual machines will not be available for new deployments after the promo end date.
-
No. reserved instances bought for regular virtual machines do not apply to the promo virtual machines.
Spot VMs
-
Workloads are evicted when Azure no longer has available compute capacity and must reallocate its resources.
Workloads will also be evicted when the current price exceeds the maximum price that you agreed to pay before the VMs were allocated.
