Fortinet FortiAnalyzer VM-S 500 GB/Day Premium Bundle, 1-Year (FC3-10-AZVMS-465-01-12)

High-volume Fortinet environments — large campuses, data centers with dense FortiGate deployments, or service providers running managed security — generate log throughput that the 50 GB/Day tier cannot sustain. FC3-10-AZVMS-465-01-12 addresses that need with 500 GB/Day capacity on Azure Marketplace for a 1-year term, backed by the full Premium Bundle. A one-year commitment at this tier is a practical entry point for organizations validating enterprise-scale log analytics in Azure before locking in a longer subscription.

Overview

FortiAnalyzer VM-S at VM plan tier 3 raises the daily log ingestion limit to 500 GB/Day — ten times the capacity of the tier 2 (FC2) option. That ceiling is designed for large Fortinet Security Fabric deployments where dozens or hundreds of FortiGate firewalls, FortiClient agents, FortiSwitch stacks, and FortiAP access points all feed telemetry to a central analytics platform. Running on Azure Marketplace as a subscription means no physical appliance to procure, no rack space to provision, and no capital outlay; the instance comes up through the Azure portal and billing runs through your existing Azure account.

Service code 465 (Premium Bundle) covers four services at this tier: FortiCare Premium support for high-priority Fortinet engineer access, IOC detection for flagging known indicators in the log stream, Security Automation Service for event-driven playbooks, and FortiGuard Outbreak Detection for emerging threat awareness. All four are active for the full 1-year term, giving large environments full Premium coverage from provisioning day through expiry.

Who it suits

This 1-year, 500 GB/Day SKU fits two types of buyers. First, large enterprises or managed security service providers with an existing high-volume Fortinet deployment that need an annual renewal cycle or a bridge term while evaluating a multi-year commitment. Second, organizations scaling rapidly — adding FortiGate devices, expanding to new sites, or consolidating logs from multiple regions — that need maximum log ingestion capacity while their sustained daily volume is still being measured. The 1-year term preserves flexibility to right-size the next commitment once the log profile is fully understood.
