SPLA Licensing

Microsoft Service Provider License Agreement (SPLA) is a licensing program that allows service providers to offer hosted services to their customers using Microsoft software products. With SPLA, service providers can use Microsoft products to deliver a wide range of services, including hosted applications, cloud services, and infrastructure services, without having to purchase individual licenses for each of their customers.

Under SPLA, service providers pay Microsoft on a monthly basis for the number of licenses they are using, rather than purchasing a license up front. This allows service providers to offer services on a pay-as-you-go basis, which is useful for companies that have variable demand for their services.

Service providers can use a wide range of Microsoft products under SPLA, including Windows Server, SQL Server, Exchange, SharePoint, and more. The SPLA program also provides access to the latest versions of these products, as well as to support and other benefits.
