Question

An organization plans to keep three of its cloud servers online for another nine months and a fourth server online for a year. The current pricing is $200 per month per server. The cloud provider announced the sale price of $1,500 per year per reserved instance.

Which of the following represents the cost savings by converting all four of the cloud servers to reserved instances?

Answers
  1. correct
Explanation

Correct Answer: B. $1,800


Explanation:

The current total cost for the cloud servers over the specified period is calculated as follows:

  • For the 3 servers online for 9 months:

    3 servers×200 per month×9 months=5,400
  • For the 1 server online for 12 months:

    200 per month×12 months=2,400

Total current cost:

5,400+2,400=7,800

Now, calculating the cost for using reserved instances:

  • For the 3 servers using reserved instances for 1 year:

    3 servers×1,500 per year=4,500
  • For the 1 server using reserved instances for 1 year:

    1 server×1,500 per year=1,500

Total cost with reserved instances:

4,500+1,500=6,000

Thus, the cost savings by switching to reserved instances is:

7,800−6,000=1,800
