[All AZ-305 Questions]

You have an Azure subscription that contains an Azure SQL database.

You plan to use Azure reservations on the Azure SQL database.

To which resource type will the reservation discount be applied?

AvCore compute

BDTU compute

CStorage

DLicense

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: A

Quantity: The amount of compute resources being purchased within the capacity reservation. The quantity is a number of vCores in the selected Azure region and Performance tier that are being reserved and will get the billing discount. For example, if you run or plan to run multiple databases with the total compute capacity of Gen5 16 vCores in the East US region, then you would specify the quantity as 16 to maximize the benefit for all the databases.

I feel like I saw a practice question that mentioned DTU compute for reservations. Could it be that one instead?

I think the reservation discount applies to the vCore compute, but I'm not entirely sure. I remember something about it being tied to compute resources.
