23 Azure Stack Licensing Model Azure Stack is licensing is like Azure Microsoft has tried to keep the business model as consistent as possible between Azure and Azure Stack Both Azure and Azure Stack are designed as a pay-as-you-use system Designed to charge for services used Units of monetization are the same Pricing of Azure Stack services is reflective of a shared cost-of-ownership

24 Pay-as-you-use model Extension of Azure business model Fee for consumption: only pay for services running on Azure Stack No upfront licensing fees: don t pay until you use the service Simple bill management One invoice with public Azure EA deployments consume same monetary commit as public Azure Available in EA and CSP channels Azure Stack Hosted and On-premises

25 Capacity model Only option for disconnected scenarios: no usage metering or connection to commerce Fixed fee, annual subscription: based on number of physical cores with unlimited IaaS for licensed cores License all physical cores on a stamp, with unlimited IaaS rights Separate transaction from Azure: cannot use monetary commit, different billing For disconnected scenarios Azure Stack Hosted and On-premises EA channel only

26 Capacity model pricing App Service Package 400$/core/year Includes: App Service, Base VM, Azure Storage Must license all physical cores on the stamp Windows Server and SQL Server are BYOL (on-premises license) IaaS Package 144$/core/year Base VM, Azure Storage only Must license all physical cores on the stamp Windows Server and SQL Server are BYOL (on-premises license)
