I have configured Azure VM for development environment from an image and running it for the past 3 weeks. Today, Azure advisor recommended that upgrading Pay-As-You-Go to reserved instance will save us 25% yearly that’s estimated 1,031.67 USD.
Here is how you can do that;
Go to Home -> <Your Subscription> -> Buy reserved instances -> Virtual machine

I came here for one year (25%) discount but if commit for three year i can get 48% discounts. Not bad.
The monthly estimated prices for a 3 years commitment is 130.61 USD.
