Elastic IP addresses map to Azure Standard public IP addresses. Public IP prefixes give contiguous ranges, and custom IP prefixes let you bring your own ranges (like AWS BYOIP).
- Lifecycle. Basic SKU public IPs retired on September 30, 2025, so use Standard (static, zone-redundant, secure by default) on Azure.
- Charges. AWS charges for every public IPv4 address, whether attached or idle. Azure charges per public IP and prefix, by SKU.
