.... kind of. A reservation is all about planning capacity. If you know (e.g.) that you need two web servers "hot" all the time to serve a base level of traffic, you can pay for that up front either partially or in total (a reservation) at some pretty significant savings. You can add hourly (or spot) capacity as needed - but paying for what you'll be using up front can make AWS very economical. If you're paying for X1 servers for an extended period of time on an hourly basis, you should be entitled to a thank you note from Jeff Bezos. |
