Worked example. The correct answer is already marked and every option is explained below, so there is nothing to select here. To answer questions yourself, start the free trial.
An organization plans to migrate several on-premises Windows Server and SQL Server workloads to Azure Virtual Machines.
The company currently holds active Software Assurance on its existing on-premises licenses and wants to maximize cost savings by reusing those licenses in the cloud rather than paying full pay-as-you-go licensing fees.
Which pricing option should the organization use to reduce their compute costs in Azure?
Azure Hybrid Benefit is a licensing offer that helps significantly reduce the costs of running workloads in the cloud. It enables organizations with active Software Assurance or qualifying subscription licenses to apply their existing on-premises Windows Server and SQL Server licenses to Azure Virtual Machines and Azure SQL Database services.
Because the organization already has active Software Assurance on its existing on-premises server licenses, enabling Azure Hybrid Benefit is the most direct and cost-effective mechanism to eliminate recurring software licensing charges in the cloud without purchasing new server software.
