IT administrators or license administrators can easily manage Visual Studio access for their end users via AWS License Manager. Administrators have the flexibility to modify the end user access on a monthly basis. For example, based on the stage of development, you can spin up additional instances and provide access to end users or similarly, stop instances and remove user access. Customers using this feature will be billed per vCPU for the EC2 License Included Windows Server instance, and per-user per-month (non-prorated) for Visual Studio and Remote Desktop Services (RDS) Subscriber Access License (SAL) licenses.
