MicrosoftSo, am I to expect a company to play Microsoft 60k a year to run 700 vCPU’s of Azure Virtual Desktops (windows 11 Multi user edition) VM’s? Assuming 175 vm’s/session hosts with 4 cpu’s to host 700 concurrent users per shift. On top of whatever it costs to run Stack HCI? 10 per physical core or Datacenter with S.A. For all cores plus the actual Cost of the hardware?
really? Like 60K is paying for what? We are paying 60K so we can legally run Multi-user edition on prem? Why?
we are trying to get rid of vmware. We want to leverage Azure VD for DR. (Where vdi is way too expensive but allowed if on prem goes offline)
Then if you wanted to scale this to 6000 vCPU’s? Over 500K a year? Are you serious? Where did you all go crazy?
sorry, just spin up 6000 vm’s of windows 11. So now you have to ask yourself why use Stack HCI? For that matter why use windows server 2022 and hyper-V maybe? We can go back to using Nutanix maybe we can run KVM… Stack HCI, I am a big supporter and found S2D to be pretty performant. But one can save a lot of money using hyper-v and a Pure SAN and dump 6000 windows 11 vm’s on top of it, this makes no sense at all.
