New Basic Tier of VMs • • • Introducing new tier of General purpose instances called “Basic” (A 0 to A 4) Today’s A 1 to A 4 instances will become Standard instances Basic instances are up to 27% less in price than Standard instances Similar machine config as Standard instances but Standard instances have better CPU performance Similar performance characteristics to AWS’s instances Does not include load balancing or auto-scaling Recommended Workloads: • Production apps that do not require the Azure load-balancer • • “bring-your-own load balancer” or single instance Development workloads Test servers Batch processing applications 20

Standard High Memory VMs • Reducing our Memory-Intensive Instance (A 5 -A 7) prices By up to 35% for Linux instances By up to 27% for Windows instances Price reductions will be effective in May • • Azure high memory instances are slightly lower in memory compared to AWS’s high memory and similar to Google’s high memory instances Announcing basic tier for Memory Intensive instances in the coming months 21

Regional Pricing • • • Introducing regional pricing for Standard and Basic Virtual machines Basic general purpose instances either match with AWS prices in the region or are slightly lower in some regions Standard High memory instances are 9% to 14% lower than AWS prices in most regions The following pricing is for example only Refer to the web site for latest pricing 22
