- content: Assume that you're running a Windows Server 2022-based VM in Azure, with D8as_v6 size, in the East US region. The monthly cost of this virtual machine is 533.63 dollars, which results in 0.731 dollar per hour (on a 730 hours per month basis). Assume that a 3-year reservation reduces the hourly rate to 0.55 dollar per hour and that Azure Hybrid Benefit reduces the cost by 50 percent. When these two benefits are combined, how much will you save on a monthly basis and on a yearly basis?
76
+
choices:
77
+
- content: "Savings per month: 290.5 dollars, savings per year: 3,486 dollars."
78
+
isCorrect: false
79
+
explanation: "This is incorrect. The monthly cost of this VM when a 3-year Azure reservation is applied is reduced to: $401.50 ($0.55 per hour x 730 hours) . With Azure Hybrid Benefit applied, the monthly cost of this VM is reduced to: $266.81 ($0.3655 per hour x 730 hours). When both are applied, the VM's monthly cost is reduced to: $200.75 ($0.275 per hour x 730 hours.). Savings per month is $533.63 - $200.75, which results in $332,88 per month, and $3994,56 per year."

- content: "Savings per month: 332.88 dollars, savings per year: 3994.56 dollars."

## Example scenario
4
+
5
+
Contoso, a leading healthcare software provider, is facing challenges in managing their on-premises infrastructure. With an increasing demand for their services and the need for a more scalable and cost-effective solution, Contoso has decided to migrate their on-premises infrastructure to the cloud. They have chosen Azure for its comprehensive hybrid cloud capabilities and decided to leverage Azure Hybrid Benefit to optimize their costs.
6
+
7
+
Challenges faced by Contoso include:
8
+
9
+
- High operational costs associated with maintaining on-premises servers.
10
+
- Limited scalability to manage peak loads and a growing customer base.
11
+
- Need for enhanced security and compliance with healthcare regulations.
12
+
13
+
To address these challenges, Contoso has decided to leverage Azure Hybrid Benefit and apply it to its Windows Server and SQL Server Licenses. By doing so, they intend to significantly reduce their cloud migration costs and allocate savings towards modernizing their infrastructure.
