📜 Plan description
1 year reserved $355.4151/month (~41% savings)
3 year reserved $228.3367/month (~62% savings)
Bs-series are economical virtual machines that provide a low-cost option for workloads that typically run at a low to moderate baseline CPU performance, but sometimes need to burst to significantly higher CPU performance when the demand rises.
Balanced CPU-to-memory ratio. Ideal for testing and development, small to medium databases, and low to medium traffic web servers.
These workloads don’t require the use of the full CPU all the time, but occasionally will need to burst to finish some tasks more quickly. Many applications such as development and test servers, low traffic web servers, small databases, micro services, servers for proof-of-concepts, build servers, and code repositories fit into this model.
Azure Virtual Machines gives you the flexibility of virtualization for a wide range of computing solutions with support for Linux, Windows Server, SQL Server, Oracle, IBM, SAP, and more. All current generation Virtual Machines include load balancing and auto-scaling at no cost. For optimal performance, we recommend pairing your Virtual Machines with Managed Disks.
Support for certain Linux virtual machine images in the Azure Marketplace is available from the publisher. In some cases, it’s provided by the publisher for free. In other cases, we charge by the minute for the right to receive support. The total charge for running a Linux virtual machine is the support rate (if applicable) plus the Linux compute rate. Microsoft does not provide support for Linux images in the Azure Marketplace.
IP address options
Every Azure Cloud service containing one or more Azure Virtual Machines is automatically assigned a free dynamic virtual IP (VIP) address. For an additional charge, you can also get:
Instance-level public IP addresses—A dynamic public IP address (PIP) that is assigned to a virtual machine for direct access.
Reserved IP addresses—A public IP address that can be reserved and used as a VIP address.
Load-balanced IP addresses—Additional load-balanced VIP addresses that can be assigned to an Azure Cloud Service containing one or more Azure Virtual Machines.

📄 Editorial Review
Azure is Microsoft’s global public cloud platform, in the same category as AWS and Google Cloud, but with extremely tight integration into Windows, Active Directory, Office/Microsoft 365 and the wider Microsoft ecosystem. It is not a classic web host with cPanel plans; it is a full IaaS, PaaS and serverless environment designed for everything from side projects to very large enterprise systems.Underneath, Azure runs on a worldwide grid of regions and datacenters, giving one of the broadest footprints in the industry. Each region consists of one or more datacenters tied together with high-capacity, low-latency links, and many regions are split into Availability Zones – physically separate facilities in the same metro – so applications can survive the loss of an entire building if they are architected that way.
From a hosting point of view, several Azure services matter most:
- Azure App Service (Web Apps) – a fully managed platform for websites and APIs. You push code or containers; the platform deals with OS patching, scaling up and out, load balancing, SSL, deployment slots and integration with databases and storage. This is the closest piece to "managed hosting".
- Azure Virtual Machines – classic VM-style compute, effectively cloud VPS and dedicated sizes. You control the OS and stack, choosing from many instance families (general purpose, compute-optimized, memory-optimized, storage-optimized, GPU, etc.) and several disk types (standard HDD, SSD, Premium SSD, Ultra).
- Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) and Azure Container Apps – managed Kubernetes and container platforms for microservices and cloud-native applications.
- Azure Functions – serverless functions billed per execution, suitable for event-driven workloads and background tasks without maintaining servers.
- Supporting services – such as Azure SQL Database, Azure Database for PostgreSQL and MySQL, Cosmos DB, Azure Storage (blob, file, queue, table), Azure CDN, Azure DNS, Azure Front Door and Application Gateway. These cover databases, storage, content delivery, DNS, global traffic management, WAF and more.
All of this is managed through a single Azure Portal, plus APIs and command-line tools, so it is easy to mix App Service sites, VMs, containers, serverless and managed databases in one subscription.
The whole platform is heavily localized, with the website and portal available in many languages and pricing shown in multiple currencies depending on the billing region. In practice, Azure behaves like a local provider in many countries, even though the platform itself is global.
In short, Azure is a cloud infrastructure and platform environment, not a shared hosting company. It fits best when there is a need to design an architecture and choose services, not just upload a single site to a panel.
