Microsoft Azure pricing details

Here’s asn example of what the first option, metered usage of Windows Azure, would cost:

Computing: 12 cents per hour

Storage: 15 cents per gigabyte
Storage transaction: 10 cents per 10,000KBandwidth: 10 cents in/15 cents out per gigabyte

It’s like trying to figure out your monthly electrical bill based on the price of a kilowatt hour.
Prashant Ketkar, director of product marketing for Windows Azure, said not to focus on the price points. “While the actual per-unit price is interesting, in the end context, it doesn’t really matter,” he said. “They’re only as significant as when you take a specific application and move to the Windows Azure environment.”

Figuring out how much that would cost will require sitting down with Microsoft or a Microsoft partner (at the Worldwide Partners Conference happening today in New Orleans) and calculating the total cost of running an application, he said.
