Question
An SAP solutions architect needs to design a three-system SAP landscape that consists of a development system, a quality system, and a production system. The systems will run on Amazon EC2 instances.

Explanation
Because the development system and the quality system will run for only 8 hours each day on weekdays, On-Demand Instances are the most cost-effective purchasing option for these systems. SAP systems are stateful and cannot be abruptly interrupted, so Spot Instances are not appropriate for this scenario. The production system will continue to grow in size, and capacity needs to be guaranteed. A combination of Savings Plans and On-Demand Capacity Reservations will provide the most cost- effective purchasing option for the production system while also ensuring that capacity is available when it is needed.
