AZURE – OTHER WAYS TO SAVE

• Azure Container Services (using Kubernetes)Ø Break down systems into components Ø Only utilize resources of component as needed

• Azure DevTest LabsØ Provide development team entire workspace to create, deploy,

image and automate startup/shutdown for entire environmentØ No licensing costs – development

• Automatic Shutdown of VMswww.dalechek.com

AZURE – MICROSOFT PROGRAMS

Reserved Instance (RI)

AZURE – RESERVED INSTANCES (RI)

• Committed to Azure for 1 or 3 years• Save up to 72% over pay-as-you-go• Covers VMs computer costs (not additional storage,

software, networking)• Covers SQL DB reserved vCore compute costs (license is

billed separately)• EA, Pay-As-You-Go, CSP subscriptions are eligible

Hybrid Use Benefit (HUB)

AZURE – HYBRID USE BENEFIT (HUB)

• Get started on cloud with your existing investment in licensing

• Entitled to extend existing on-premise Windows Server and SA to the cloud at a reduced rate

• Example:Ø SA on 40 cores, 5 standard 4-core, 16GB RAM running an

entire month = $1,540.30/monthØ HUB reduces that cost to $737.30/monthØ 47.9% savings

www.dalechek.com

AZURE – RI + HUB = MORE SAVINGS

Combine RIs and HUB Benefits = up to 80% Savings80%
