Software Subscriptions are 1 or 3 year Windows Server and SQL Server subscriptions for on-premises or cloud use that you can easily acquire, provision and manage, offering your customers market-leading pricing and unmatched deployment flexibility.

Best Customer Value

Your customers will be thrilled to save up to 79% versus pay-as-you-go pricing by using their Windows Server and SQL Server subscriptions along with

Azure Reserved Instances (RIs) and the Azure Hybrid Benefit.

Greater Flexibility: Deployment On-premises or in the Cloud

Customers who buy Server Subscriptions for Windows Server or SQL Server are entitled to the Azure Hybrid Benefit and thus may choose to use these licenses for Azure virtual machines or in on-premises deployments. If they use them for an on-premises deployment, the usual licensing rules for these products apply, as detailed in the Product Terms.
