The centralized Azure Hybrid Benefit management experience is part of Cost Management + Billing. It automatically applies qualifying SQL Server licenses under Azure Hybrid Benefit to the following Azure resources. The total number of normalized core licenses (NCL) created by SQL license assignment for a specific scope is applied. For more information about NCL, see [How Azure applies assigned SQL licenses to hourly usage](manage-licenses-centrally.md).

Each resource reports its usage once an hour using the appropriate full price or pay-as-you-go meters. Internally in Azure, the Usage Application engine evaluates the available NCLs and applies them for that hour. For a given hour of vCore resource consumption, the pay-as-you-go meters are switched to the corresponding Azure Hybrid Benefit meter with a zero ($0) price if there's enough unutilized NCLs in the selected scope.

When the vCore consumption by the SQL resources in the scope exceeds the number of unutilized NCLs, the excess vCore consumption is billed using the appropriate pay-as-you-go meter. The following diagram shows the discounting process when the vCore consumption exceeds the number of unutilized NCLs.
