Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Reserved VM Instance?
A Reserved VM Instance allows you to pre-purchase compute capacity on Microsoft Azure for a 1-year or 3-year term. This commitment provides a discount compared to pay-as-you-go pricing for stable workloads.
How does this reservation save money?
