Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Reserved VM Instance?

Who should consider a Reserved VM Instance?
Organizations with predictable, steady-state workloads that will run for extended periods are ideal candidates. This includes hosting critical applications, databases, or development environments where resource usage is consistent.
