Microsoft extends life of cloud servers from four to six years
signaled they'd each spend billions on new servers to enable growth and catch up with purchases that were impossible during COVID-19-related supply chain messes.
But news that Microsoft may run servers for six years is surely something cloud buyers need to consider. Microsoft has made three-year server reservations its best-priced offer for both IaaS and some of its software licences. With the software giant now sweating assets for longer – and banking massive savings – users surely need to ask for their share of that bounty when next negotiating a cloudy deal.
Customers will also need to ask themselves if they’re happy running on six-year-old kit. Microsoft's silicon suppliers – Intel, AMD, and Ampere – will have produced perhaps three generations of processor across that span of time, not to mention other worthy innovations in networking et cetera. Intra-cloud migrations may well become necessary for some users, if only to avoid being tied to old hardware.
