Selected Answer: D
Compute Savings Plans provide the most flexibility and help to reduce your costs by up to 66% (just like Convertible RIs). These plans automatically apply to EC2 instance usage regardless of instance family, size, AZ, Region, operating system, or tenancy, and also apply to Fargate and Lambda usage. For example, with Compute Savings Plans, you can change from C4 to M5 instances, shift a workload from EU (Ireland) to Europe (London), or move a workload from Amazon EC2 to Fargate or Lambda at any time and automatically continue to pay the Savings Plans price.

Selected Answer: B
B: Purchase an EC2 Instance Savings Plan Coverage Across Regions: EC2 Instance Savings Plans provide flexibility in terms of instance type and Region, allowing coverage for instances running in any AWS Region. Commitment Term: EC2 Instance Savings Plans offer a 1-year term, which aligns with the company's requirement for a 1-year commitment. Savings Benefit: Savings Plans provide discounts based on your usage, regardless of instance family, size, AZ, or Region. This means as long as the instances are running within the scope of the Savings Plan, they will benefit from the discount, even when migrated from eu-west-1 to eu-west-3.

Selected Answer: D
EC2 Instance Savings Plans provide the lowest prices, offering savings up to 72% (just like Standard RIs) in exchange for commitment to usage of individual instance families in a Region (for example, M5 usage in N. Virginia). https://docs.aws.amazon.com/whitepapers/latest/cost-optimization-reservation-models/savings-plans.html
