Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Reserved VM Instance?
A Reserved VM Instance allows you to pre-purchase Azure compute capacity for a one-year or three-year term, significantly reducing your costs compared to pay-as-you-go pricing. You commit to a specific VM size in a region, and in return, you receive a discount.
Why choose Azure Government regions?
Azure Government regions are physically isolated from the public Azure cloud and are designed to meet the stringent security and compliance requirements of US federal, state, local, and tribal governments, as well as their partners.
Can I change the VM size or region after purchase?
While the Reserved VM Instance provides a commitment, Azure offers flexibility. You can exchange or cancel reservations under certain conditions, and Azure provides Savings Plans that offer more flexibility across VM sizes and regions.
