But for all your servers OS’s your covered with datacenter.ģ. There are some places where you might want to purchase Microsoft VDA (Virtual Desktop Access) licenses for desktop OS’s specifically on VDI. You don’t need to buy separate licenses for each VM (OSE) if you have purchased datacenter licensing for each host.
MICROSOFT WINDOWS LICENSE PRICE WINDOWS 10
Do I need to buy separate licenses and Product keys for that each VM also? If VM OS is Windows 10 Pro, Windows 2008, Windows 2012, Windows 2016, Windows 2019 and Linux. You can run unlimited VM’s (OSEs) on each physical host that’s licensed.Ģ. Can I host unlimited VMs on that physical host ? Hi Raj thanks for reading and sorry for the delayed response.ġ.
MICROSOFT WINDOWS LICENSE PRICE UPDATE
I’ll update the calculator when I get confirmation. I’m using the higher cost User CALs for this calculator at ~$43 per CAL and I believe the cost has increased but I’ve been unable to verify that as yet. The Software Assurance costs are based on 2 years Open License or 3 Years Open Value and it’s ~25% per year. You should contact your Reseller or LSP to get actual pricing or quotes. This is an educated guess at what pricing and core pack licensing is, based on the MSRP pricing available at the time. Thanks for reading!ĭisclaimer: The pricing reflected here is based on MSRP. Finally you can also check out this nice datasheet I found that details Windows Server 2019 volume licensing. You should also check out the Pricing and licensing for Windows Server 2019 page to see the differences between Standard and Datacenter. There are many changes to Windows Server 2019 that I won’t go over here but if you’re interested here’s a feature comparison guide for the last 4 versions of Windows Server. It’s Windows Server 2016 focused but the licensing concepts are the same for Windows Server 2019. If you’re new to the licensing changes in Windows Server 2016 or Windows Server 2019 check out my detailed article on the subject.
Largely this calculator is identical to the Windows Server 2016 Calculator with a few minor tweaks. I figured it was time to update the highly popular calculator to reflect the Standard price increase. Windows Server 2019 has been out for a while now and other than some early adopter issues, it appears to be pretty stable now.
