Frequently Asked Questions
What is a dedicated host?
A dedicated host is a physical server within Microsoft Azure that is entirely dedicated to your use. You can place any number of virtual machines on this host, ensuring isolation from other Azure customers.
How does a dedicated host differ from a regular virtual machine?
A regular virtual machine runs on shared physical hardware, meaning resources are shared among multiple customers. A dedicated host provides you with exclusive access to the underlying physical server, offering greater control, isolation, and predictable performance.
Can I use my existing Windows Server licenses with a dedicated host?
Yes, you can bring your existing eligible Windows Server and SQL Server licenses with Software Assurance to dedicated hosts to benefit from license mobility and potential cost savings.
