Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Reserved VM Instance?
A Reserved VM Instance is a commitment to use a specific type of virtual machine for a set term (e.g., 1 or 3 years) in exchange for a significant discount compared to pay-as-you-go pricing. It guarantees capacity in the chosen region.
Who benefits most from this type of instance?
Organizations with predictable, long-term compute needs for demanding workloads such as AI, machine learning, or high-performance computing will benefit most. This includes companies running sustained, resource-intensive applications.
Can I change the region or VM size after purchase?
Reserved Instances are tied to a specific VM size and region. While Azure offers some flexibility with reservations, significant changes may require purchasing new reservations or adjusting existing ones according to Azure's policies.
