Explanation
Since the consumption of cloud resources for the application is stable on an annual basis, reserved instances are the best option for cost optimization. Reserved instances allow the company to commit to using certain cloud resources for a longer period (e.g., 1 or 3 years) at a significant discount compared to on-demand pricing. This is ideal for stable, predictable workloads, offering cost savings while ensuring the necessary resources are available.
