Assumptions & what's not included

  • Single region (Central India), single app VM — no load balancer or multi-AZ
  • Azure SQL Database on the DTU model, storage included in the tier
  • No high-availability replica or geo-failover (add a second SQL DB for that)
  • No VM reserved-instance discount applied — this is on-demand
  • Backups beyond the included PITR window, and any egress, not counted
  • GST not included in the figures shown

Who this fits

  • Internal tools and LOB apps with a known, modest user base
  • Teams that want a real SQL database, not just file storage
  • Under ~50 concurrent users on a single application server
