    Full Answer

    C.Azure Spot Virtual Machines✓ Correct
    Azure Spot Virtual Machines
    Azure Spot Virtual Machines allow you to take advantage of unused Azure capacity at a significant cost savings. However, if Azure needs the capacity back, the Spot VMs will be evicted. They are ideal for workloads that can handle interruptions.

    Common mistakes

    Confusing Spot VMs with Reserved VMs. Reserved = guaranteed capacity. Spot = no guarantee, can be evicted.
