What are IBM Cloud Reservations?
At IBM Cloud, we want you to have payment solutions that align to your budget and goals, which is why we have IBM Cloud Reservations – advanced capacity provisioning at reduced rates for long-term planning. IBM Cloud Reservations are ideal for organizations with sustained workloads, especially those who seek to resolve cloud capacity and availability issues. They’re also valuable for new-to-cloud companies dealing with one-to-three-year internal procurement cycles who could use instant savings without the large up-front payment.
With a 1-year reservation for an IBM Cloud Bare Metal Server, you can get up to 35% off pricing compared to standard, on-demand pricing. It’s guaranteed capacity where and when you need it for the duration of your term.
