Read Original

This technical article analyzes two primary methods for reducing Azure Virtual Machine costs: purchasing Reservations (with 1 or 3-year commitments) and implementing automated power-down schedules. It explains why these methods generally shouldn't be combined and provides detailed pricing examples to help determine which strategy is more cost-effective based on a VM's required weekly uptime.
