從10月1日起，微軟將下調部分Azure云服務的價格。微軟在博客上表示，公司將削減ExpressRoute NSP私有網絡服務、BizTalk服務、移動服務、基本緩存以及CDN等一系列服務的價格。
微軟表示，客戶要想獲得優惠，必須通過微軟網站購買這些服務。已簽署企業協議的客戶將繼續享受更低的售價。
此次降價是為了響應微軟提出與亞馬遜商用云服務降價保持一致的承諾。一位微軟新聞發言人在回應這次降價時表示：“正如一年多前承諾的那樣，微軟仍將致力于在計算、存儲和帶寬方面與亞馬遜的定價匹敵。這次對選定的微軟Azure服務的降價并不是一次直接競爭的舉動，而是為了讓這些服務更加便于訪問，對于更多客戶更具經濟效益。”
