Licensing Models
Pay-as-you-Go (PayG)
On-demand consumption based pricing with no commitment. Monthly billing based on the vCPU and storage capacity consumed.
- No upfront commitment
- Pay for what you use, metered hourly
- Billed monthly based on consumption
- Great for short duration or unplanned usage
Bring your own License (BYOL)
License portability benefits by transferring capacity from your on-premises term-based capacity-based licenses (CBL) to public cloud provider.
- Ideal for flexible capacity across on-premises and public cloud environments
- Term based licensing (1 to 5 yrs) with capacity based pricing
Licensing Models for NC2 deployments are listed in USD. Customers are responsible for costs associated with AWS or Azure bare-metal instances and services.
NC2 prices listed below correspond to the Nutanix AOS licensing model, and any NC2 usage above planned license capacity will default to the customer selected subscription plan.
Pay-as-you-go (PAYG) plan is not supported for the Nutanix Cloud Infrastructure (NCI) licensing model, however NCI licenses can be transferred between on-premises and NC2 environments under the bring-your-own-licenses (BYOL) capability. See here for additional information on NCI licenses.
