Windows Virtualisation Use Rights Coming to CSP
Wednesday 19th July 2017
Microsoft announced that virtualization use rights will be coming to Windows 10 subscriptions in the cloud solution provider (CSP) program starting in September, with the flexibility to host in both Azure or with 3rd party hosting partners.
Beginning 6th September 2017, customers will be able to choose from five subscription offerings in the CSP program with Windows 10 virtualization use rights, enabling Windows VMs to be hosted in Azure or with a qualified multitenant hosting partner:
- Windows 10 Enterprise E3 will be available with or without virtualization use rights
- Windows 10 Enterprise E5 will be updated to include virtualization use rights
- A new Windows 10 Enterprise E3 VDA offering will be created for customers that require access to Windows VMs on non-Windows Pro devices
- Customers purchasing or already subscribed to Microsoft 365 Enterprise (formerly known as Secure Productive Enterprise) via CSP will automatically receive Windows 10 virtualization use rights at no extra cost
- Compute and consumption charges may apply based on VM use
