On-demand Linux and Windows virtual machines on Azure
Updated
Azure Virtual Machines is Microsoft's infrastructure-as-a-service offering for scalable, on-demand computing resources. Teams can deploy Linux or Windows virtual machines in many sizes and regions, from general-purpose servers to GPU and memory-optimized instances, and manage them with Azure tools.
Developers, IT administrators and enterprises that need flexible servers in the cloud use Azure Virtual Machines. It suits teams migrating on-premises servers, hosting applications and running workloads with custom operating system or software requirements.
Azure Virtual Machines is billed on a usage basis, with pay-as-you-go rates per hour or second that depend on VM size, operating system and region. Reservations, savings plans and Spot VMs can lower costs, so use the Azure pricing calculator.
Common alternatives to Azure Linux Virtual Machines include Amazon EC2, Google Compute Engine and DigitalOcean Droplets. Compare scope, deployment model, integrations and pricing before choosing.
