 <\/p>\n

Microsoft President Satya Nadella announced major new milestones for the Translator API at his BUILD conference keynote<\/a> today. We would like to provide some additional detail about the announcement here.<\/p>\n

The headlines:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Microsoft Translator API available via the Windows Azure Marketplace at various volume levels to meet your needs<\/li>\n
  2. Reiterating our support for standards by supporting OData and adding standards based (OAuth) authentication for greater security<\/li>\n
  3. Publishing the pricing model for the various subscription tiers to best fit your needs (in addition<\/strong> to the free tier that we currently offer)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Starting today developers can directly sign up for the Microsoft Translator service on the Windows Azure Marketplace<\/a> at the level of volume they expect to use. Windows Azure Marketplace is the one stop shop for cloud data, apps and services and we are pleased to utilize this platform to deliver the Translator API to developers.  Provisioning the Microsoft Translator API through the Marketplace allows us to deliver the service at higher volumes than we previously could offer, along with the facility to upgrade to higher volume on demand. Additionally, the Marketplace provides a world-class ecommerce back-end which enables us to better serve our global Translator partners and grow with demand.<\/p>\n

    \"image\"<\/a><\/p>\n

    We are also pleased to announce the addition of OData<\/a> to our already diverse set of interfaces (SOAP, HTTP & AJAX) to the Microsoft Translator service. Once you subscribe to the offer on Azure Marketplace, you can explore the Odata end point by using the Service Explorer<\/a>. Starting now, developers are also able to use standards based two-leg authentication (OAuth) to secure calls to API (irrespective of the end point they are using). The full details are available in our developer documentation<\/a>.<\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    \"Service<\/a><\/p>\n

    In response to the tremendous demand from existing as well as new partners that wish to utilize a reliable, consistently available, and developer friendly service, we are also pleased to announce pricing for higher volume usage today. In addition to a no-cost tier that is designed for low-volume and hobbyist use, you can today subscribe to higher volume tiers at an attractive price point. You can subscribe to tiers<\/a> ranging from 4M (million) characters a month onwards, priced at US $10 per million characters. As an introductory offer, we are also announcing a 120 day (4 month) promotional free trial on all paid subscriptions for a limited time. We hope this would allow you to use the service and determine the volume level you would need for your scenario. Existing licensees and users of our API are not affected by this announcement and will have plenty of notice to prepare for the eventual transition onto the unified Marketplace based platform. Please refer to the frequently asked questions (FAQ) page<\/a> for more details<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

    Nearly five years ago<\/a>, we first said “hello world” on this blog. Since then, thanks to an ever increasing user base and enthusiastic developer and business partners we have come a long way. As a team of researchers and engineers at Microsoft Research, we continue to strive to deliver value to Microsoft partners and users worldwide by combining research investments with product development. In addition to our the API, we also provide translation experiences through Bing Translator<\/a> – our consumer focused webpage and text translation site, through Office, Bing Bar, Internet Explorer and much more<\/a>. Please don’t hesitate to send us your feedback, comments and questions. We have vibrant user<\/a> and developer<\/a> communities where you can discuss the service or ask for help. For questions that aren’t answered in the FAQ or the community, you can also email us at mtcont@microsoft.com<\/a> (for general comments), or at mtlic@microsoft.com<\/a> (for specific licensing questions). Please direct any press inquires to mtcont@microsoft.com<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

    We hope to see you soon from the other side of a translation request!<\/p>\n
