| **Burstable** | Designed for workloads that do not require full CPU performance continuously. Uses a CPU credit model: credits accumulate when usage is below baseline and are consumed when usage exceeds it. When credits are exhausted, the VM is restricted to baseline CPU, which under sustained load can cause severe performance degradation, connection timeouts, and delays or transient failures in management operations until credits rebuild. Best suited for web servers, proof-of-concept environments, small databases, and development builds. Not recommended for production workloads. |
