Reserved EC2 instance. 24 copies working 1 hour (at the same hour), equal to 1 instance working 24 hours?

Question

I understand that reserved instances in AWS are more like billing things, but rather actual instances — they are not tied to a real instance — and I wonder:

If I buy a reserved instance of a certain time in a certain region and availability zone, I will be billed the same rate if I use one instance 24 hours a day against 24 copies (the same size, the same availability zone) for 1 hour (the same hour, for example 00: 00-01: 00) every day?

Is there a difference in the types of reserved instances regarding this issue?

If the answer is no, and obviously it’s not such a clear reduction (that is, I come and go all the time, some work at the same time, and some at different times) - how can I do the calculation regardless of whether it makes sense to me buy reserved copies?

Answer 1

I believe .

This is not obvious from the description of their products, but it is reasonable to assume that “copy reservation” and “long-term commitment” should not be abused, so that 365 copies working on one day are as cost-effective as the estimated 1 copy for a whole year.
