Prices are estimates only and are not intended as actual price quotes. Actual pricing may vary depending on the type of agreement entered with Microsoft, date of purchase, and the currency exchange rate. Prices are calculated based on US dollars and converted using London closing spot rates that are captured in the two business days prior to the last business day of the previous month end. If the two business days prior to the end of the month fall on a bank holiday in major markets, the rate setting day is generally the day immediately preceding the two business days. This rate applies to all transactions during the upcoming month. Sign in to the Azure pricing calculator to see pricing based on your current program/offer with Microsoft. Contact an Azure sales specialist for more information on pricing or to request a price quote. See frequently asked questions about Azure pricing.

Billing for Azure SRE Agent is based on Azure Agent Units (AAU). AAUs standardize measuring agentic processing across all prebuilt Azure agents. Each agent is billed at 4 Azure Agent Units per hour as the baseline cost. Each task the agent executes is billed at an additional 0.25 Azure Agent Units per second as usage-based cost. Total cost is a combination of the fixed baseline cost and incremental usage-based costs.
For more information, please see product documentation.The pricing for Azure SRE Agent is currently in preview and is subject to change when it’s generally available.
