> "you pay only for the agent nodes within your clusters, not for the masters."
- justinjlynn 9y agoWhich is to be read "the price of the Master is incorporated into the amortised price per unit time of the agent nodes". Microsoft is not giving you something for nothing here.
- plasma 9y agoTo be fair to MS here, the agent price is the same as the stand-alone VM pricing, so there really does not appear to be a premium/hidden cost here.
- justinjlynn 9y agoEither that or everyone is paying some kind of premium to subsidise the service. I would be extremely surprised if it's not rolled into some cost of goods sold metric -- if it's one thing microsoft is not, it's being bad at passing on costs.
