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 region for a set term (1 or 3 years). In exchange for this commitment, you receive a significant discount compared to pay-as-you-go pricing.
How does this reservation save money?
By committing to a 3-year term, you secure a substantially lower hourly rate for the Standard_NV48s_v3 instance compared to its on-demand price. This leads to predictable and reduced cloud spending over the reservation period.
Can I change the VM instance type or region after purchase?
Reserved Instances are tied to the specific VM type and region purchased. While Azure offers some flexibility through the Azure Hybrid Benefit or the ability to exchange reservations, direct changes to the reserved instance itself are not typically permitted without specific Azure policies.
