Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Reserved VM Instance?
A Reserved VM Instance is a commitment to use a specific virtual machine type in a particular Azure region for a 1-year or 3-year term. In exchange for this commitment, you receive a significant discount compared to pay-as-you-go pricing.
How does this reservation save me money?
By committing to a 1-year term, you secure a lower price per hour for the Standard_NC4as_T4_v3 instance than you would pay on demand. This is ideal for workloads that run consistently.
Can I change the VM instance type or region after purchase?
Reserved Instances are generally fixed for the term. While Azure offers some flexibility through the Azure Hybrid Benefit or the ability to exchange reservations, modifications are not guaranteed and depend on specific Azure policies. It is best to plan your needs carefully before purchasing.
