In Azure's consumption-based model, resource meters (for compute time, storage, bandwidth, and so on) record actual usage during each billing cycle. You are invoiced only for that metered consumption, with no upfront commitment, so costs automatically increase or decrease as you scale resources. Reserved Instances (choice B) require a one- or three-year commitment, choice C describes a flat-rate subscription, and choice D refers to capital expenditure on on-premises hardware. Therefore, choice A is correct.
