TomWiessner you were right but I guess they are charging for support included which is why it is showing 20 $ if you change to other support like developer, standard and professional direct the value changes. it is cost of basic support that is included for all products it mostly applicable for hot storage

- TomWiessnerJan 05, 2023Copper ContributorHi Chandrasekhar_Arya,
thank you for your time to solve my problem, i am appreciate.
My problem is that I would have expected a $0 cost in both configurations. However, due to the difference in geo-redundancy, there is a $20 cost. This may be ok, I just don't understand why.
Is there a technical reason for this or is it a default value in Pricing Calculator? Do you see what I mean?

TomWiessner it takes default of 1000GB for Geo-replication data transfer and adds 20$ change the value to 0 GB you should be good . (Azure pricing calculator) refer the screenshot

- TomWiessnerJan 06, 2023Copper ContributorI share with you an estimation example (https://azure.com/e/7fffc598d9ca454ca28f2c996ae2756d). As you can see all values are set to 0, in the end the upfront cost is 0$ (as expected), but the monthly cost is 20$ (I expected 0$).
