Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Reserved VM Instance?
A Reserved VM Instance is a commitment to use a specific type of virtual machine in a particular Azure region for a 1-year or 3-year term. This commitment allows you to receive a discount on your compute costs compared to pay-as-you-go pricing.
How does this save money?
By pre-purchasing compute capacity, you secure a lower hourly rate for your virtual machines. This is most beneficial for workloads that run continuously or have predictable usage patterns.
