Azure Lab Services is a cloud solution that lets users set up preconfigured access to virtual machines and access all VMs across multiple labs from a single place.
Customers use the service to conduct classes, hands-on labs, conferences, sales demos, early trials, and events and scale up to hundreds of virtual machines for their attendees.
Top reasons to use Azure Lab Services
Automatic management of Azure infrastructure and scale
Being a managed service, Azure Lab Services allows provisioning and management of the underlying infrastructure automatically by the service. Focus on the right lab experience and let the service handle the rest and scale your VMs with a single click.
Excellent user experience
Simple workflow lets users see all VMs they have access to across multiple labs right upon sign in. A click on a button will get them started using the VMs without Azure subscriptions.
Tracking and optimization of the costs
Azure Lab Services allow controlling exact hours users are allowed to use the VMs. Set up schedules to provide the VM usage during the predefined time slots or set up auto shutdown and start times. Set limits to individual user’s usage.
Azure Lab Services global availability pricing is effective as of May 1, 2019. Until then users will be billed based on the preview pricing. See complete details on the Azure Lab Services pricing page.
