Windows Server and SQL server license conversion on Azure

Kei04924 :

When it comes to licensing Windows Server and SQL Server on Azure, there are a few options available depending on your needs. Here are the license combinations that are supported:

1. Windows Server License BYOL (with SA) + SQL Server License BYOL (with SA)
2. Windows Server License BYOL (with SA) + SQL Server License Pay-as-you-go
3. Windows Server License Pay-as-you-go + SQL Server License BYOL (with SA)
4. Windows Server License Pay-as-you-go + SQL Server License Pay-as-you-go

To change the license type on Azure, you will need to follow these steps:

1. Log in to the Azure portal
2. Navigate to the virtual machine that you want to change the license type for
3. Select "Configuration" from the left-hand menu
4. Under "Settings", select "Licenses"
5. Choose the license type that you want to change to and follow the prompts to complete the change

My personal Preference is: 

1. Windows Server License Pay-as-you-go + SQL Server License Pay-as-you-go

It's important to note that converting your licenses to Azure can be a complex process, and it's recommended that you consult with a licensing expert to ensure that you are in compliance with licensing requirements.
