  3. Which EC2 pricing model provides the highest potential discount but can be interrupted by AWS with a two-minute warning?

  6. A company has purchased 3-year Reserved Instances but no longer needs the capacity. What can they do with unused RIs?

    Answer: Sell them on the AWS Reserved Instance Marketplace

    Unused Reserved Instances can be sold to other AWS customers through the Reserved Instance Marketplace, allowing some cost recovery.

  7. Which AWS pricing principle describes the reduction in per-unit cost as usage increases?

    Answer: Volume-based discounts (tiered pricing)

    AWS uses tiered pricing for services like S3 and data transfer, where the per-unit cost decreases as cumulative usage crosses higher volume thresholds.
