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 Microsoft to reserve capacity for you, and in return, you receive a significant discount compared to pay-as-you-go pricing.
How does this save me money?
By committing to a 1-year term, you pay a lower rate for the VM instance than if you were to pay for it on an hourly, pay-as-you-go basis. This is ideal for workloads with consistent usage patterns.
Can I change the VM size or region later?
Azure Reserved Instances offer flexibility. You can exchange your reservation for another instance type or region, or cancel it with certain conditions, though it is best to choose your reservation carefully based on anticipated needs.
