How SCE benefits you


To enroll in an SCE, an installed-basewide
commitment is required to one or more
components. This means committing to full
Software Assurance coverage across the installed
base of an SCE component.
In the case of System Center, a commitment is
required to full System Center coverage on the
Windows Server installed base through the Core
Infrastructure Suites (CIS).
In return for making this commitment, SCE offers
a range of benefits, including new cloudoptimized licensing options, simplified license
management, and the best pricing and terms.
Cloud-enabled
SCE offers our lowest Microsoft Azure pricing,
application License Mobility to the cloud, and new

benefits for using System Center to manage


Microsoft Azure resources. SCE also includes a
new subscription-based option that offers more
flexibility when you are retiring workloads,
consolidating, or migrating to the cloud.
Standardized and simplified
Take advantage of simplified licensing through a
standardized set of SKUs and gain access to the
latest technologies and benefits for all
deployments. In addition, a commitment to CIS in
SCE includes a standardized management
platform across on-premise and Microsoft Azure.
Cost savings and benefits
SCE offers the best Microsoft pricing and benefits
for server and cloud products, including discounts
on new licenses, Software Assurance, and
Microsoft Azure. Eligible customers may also
qualify for premium benefits such as Unlimited
Support.

How to get started


The Server and Cloud Enrollment is a three-year
commitment made under a Microsoft Enterprise
Agreement (EA). In addition to SCE-specific
benefits, access unique Enterprise Agreement
benefits, including volume discounts and the most
flexible and predictable terms available with any
Microsoft Volume Licensing program.
SCE can be purchased at any time, although the
expiration of an existing Enterprise Agreement or
Software Assurance commitment is a great time
to evaluate whether SCE is the right vehicle for
your server and cloud needs.

SEC replaces the Enrollment for Application


Platform (EAP), Enrollment for Core Infrastructure
(ECI), and Enrollment for Microsoft Azure (EWA).
