Azure Arc is free for managing On-prem servers if they are Kubernetes or SQL Server then there is a charge (Refer the attached screenshot
Microsoft Sentinel is billed for the volume of data stored in an Azure Monitor Log Analytics workspace and analyzed in Microsoft Sentinel.
you have to pay the log injection charges for Azure monitor not for sentinel use Azure pricing calculator that provides you details on the various components look at the below article for more details

    Hi Chandra, I Appreciate your response!

    Azure Arc is free for managing On-prem servers i agree.
    I Agree there will be ingestion charges on LogAnalytic Workspace and Sentinel

    Does installing AMA on these agent machines and collecting logs incur me any charge for Azure ARC (im not using any SQL/kubernetes server)
