- Infrastructure pricing to Microsoft, includes (on top of) managed Tanzu components.

- Tanzu licensing pricing to VMware, includes (on top of) vCPU usage to VMware.

To illustrate, consider a Spring app running 730 hours on 4 vCPUs for the app and 5 vCPUs on two Tanzu components. The pricing calculations would be as follows:
66+
67+
- Microsoft infrastructure: `4 + 5 * 730 * vCPU unit price`

- Tanzu licensing to VMware: `4 vCPU * 730 * vCPU unit price of Tanzu license`
