Microsoft is planning to make it much easier to move its software between servers in data centres.
Currently it is difficult for customers to swap the company's software from one machine to another quickly without buying another licence.
Under the new rules, Microsoft will remove the requirement to get new licences for 41 server-based programs.
The move is seen as an attempt to catch up with rivals championing the "virtualisation" of software.
