 # How reservation recommendations are created
-Azure reserved instance (RI) purchase recommendations are provided through Azure Consumption [Reservation Recommendation API](/rest/api/consumption/reservationrecommendations), [Azure Advisor](../..//advisor/advisor-cost-recommendations.md#buy-reserved-virtual-machine-instances-to-save-money-over-pay-as-you-go-costs), and through the reservation purchase experience in the Azure portal.
 
-The following steps define how recommendations are calculated: 
-1. The recommendation engine evaluates the hourly usage for your resources in the given scope over the past seven, 30, and 60 days.

+The following steps define how recommendations are calculated:

+1. The recommendation engine evaluates the hourly usage for your resources in the given scope over the past 7, 30, and 60 days.
 2. Based on the usage data, the engine simulates your costs with and without reservations.
 3. The costs are simulated for different quantities, and the quantity that maximizes the savings is recommended.
 4. If your resources are shut down regularly, the simulation won't find any savings, and no purchase recommendation is provided.

+Reservation purchase recommendations for virtual machines are available in Azure Advisor. Keep in mind the following points:
+
 - Advisor has only single-subscription scope recommendations.
-- Recommendations that are calculated with a 30 day look-back period are available in Advisor.
+- Recommendations that are calculated with a 30-day look-back period are available in Advisor.
 - If you purchase a shared-scope reservation, Advisor reservation purchase recommendations can take up to 30 days to disappear.
 
 ## Other expected API behavior
+
 - When using a look-back period of seven days, you might not get recommendations when VMs are shut down for more than a day.

 # How a reservation discount is applied to Azure Database for MariaDB
 
-After you buy an Azure Database for MariaDB reserved capacity, the reservation discount is automatically applied to MariaDB servers that match the attributes and quantity of the reservation. A reservation covers only the compute costs of your Azure Database for MariaDB. You're charged for storage and networking at the normal rates. 
+After you buy an Azure Database for MariaDB reserved capacity, the reservation discount is automatically applied to MariaDB servers that match the attributes and quantity of the reservation. A reservation covers only the compute costs of your Azure Database for MariaDB. You're charged for storage and networking at the normal rates.
 
 ## How reservation discount is applied
 
-A reservation discount is ***use-it-or-lose-it***. So, if you don't have matching resources for any hour, then you lose a reservation quantity for that hour. You can't carry forward unused reserved hours.</br>
+A reservation discount is ***use-it-or-lose-it***. So, if you don't have matching resources for any hour, then you lose a reservation quantity for that hour. You can't carry forward unused reserved hours.
 
 When you shut down a resource, the reservation discount automatically applies to another matching resource in the specified scope. If no matching resources are found in the specified scope, then the reserved hours are lost.
 
 ## Discount applied to Azure Database for MariaDB
 
-The Azure Database for MariaDB reserved capacity discount is applied to running your MariaDB servers on an hourly basis. The reservation that you buy is matched to the compute usage emitted by the running Azure Database for MariaDB servers. For MariaDB servers that don't run the full hour, the reservation is automatically applied to other Azure Database for MariaDB matching the reservation attributes. The discount can apply to Azure Database for MariaDB servers that are running concurrently. If you don't have an MariaDB server that run for the full hour that match the reservation attributes, you don't get the full benefit of the reservation discount for that hour.

If you are running a 16 vCore Azure Database for MariaDB servers that matches the rest of the attributes of the reservation, you're charged the pay-as-you-go price for 8 vCore of your MariaDB server compute usage and you get the reservation discount for one hour of 8 vCore MariaDB server compute usage.</br>
