Explanation

A 'reservation' in cloud resource management is a guaranteed minimum allocation of a resource (such as CPU, memory, or storage) that is always available to a specific tenant or workload, regardless of overall system load or competing demands. It ensures that the customer will always have at least that amount of resource available. This is the opposite of a 'limit' (a maximum cap) and different from a 'share' (a relative priority during contention). A 'provision' refers to the act of setting up or allocating resources, not a standing guarantee. Reservations are typically backed by SLA commitments.
