True or False: Azure Spot Virtual Machines provide a guaranteed Service Level Agreement (SLA) for high-availability workloads.

Answer options:

True

False

How to approach this question

Remember that Spot VMs are cheap because they use leftover capacity. If Azure needs that capacity back, they take it.

Full Answer

B.False✓ Correct

Azure Spot Virtual Machines allow you to take advantage of unused capacity at a significant cost savings. However, at any point in time when Azure needs the capacity back, the Azure infrastructure will evict Spot VMs. Therefore, they do not provide an SLA and are only suitable for workloads that can handle interruptions (like batch processing).

Common mistakes

Assuming all Azure services have an SLA. Spot VMs are a specific exception.
