A company needs to reserve a certain amount of Amazon EC2 compute resources in a specific Availability Zone within an AWS Region.
Which purchasing option should the company use to meet this requirement?
EC2 Instance Savings Plans
Compute Savings Plans
Regional Reserved Instances
Zonal Reserved Instances
Explanations:
EC2 Instance Savings Plans provide cost savings for specific instance types regardless of Availability Zone, but do not allow locking to a particular zone.
Compute Savings Plans offer flexibility across different instance types and regions, without commitment to a specific Availability Zone.
Regional Reserved Instances are bound to a region but not a specific Availability Zone, making them unsuitable for a zonal requirement.
Zonal Reserved Instances reserve capacity in a specific Availability Zone within an AWS Region, meeting the exact requirement for zonal reservation.
I measure that the answer is:
Zonal Reserved Instances
