Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Reserved VM Instance?
A Reserved VM Instance (RVI) is a pricing model where you commit to using specific virtual machine types in a particular region for a set term (1 or 3 years) in exchange for a significant discount compared to on-demand pricing.
Who should consider a Reserved VM Instance?
Organizations with stable, predictable compute needs that have analyzed their resource utilization and require consistent performance for their workloads are ideal candidates for RVIs.
Can I change the VM size or region after purchasing a reservation?
While the commitment is to a specific VM type and region, Azure offers flexibility options, such as exchanging or modifying reservations under certain conditions. Consult Azure documentation for details.
