Provisioning Model

The availability of the virtual machines you want to create. You can choose Regular Virtual Machines, or Spot (Preemptible VMs). Regular VMs have a higher cost hourly rate and they are available 24/7, giving you full control of when to start and stop it. Spot VMs on the other hand have a lower cost hourly rate and are self-preempted, which means they are stopped at any point within 24 hours after being started.
