Use on-demand instances with no commitment

Use 1-year reserved instances with a multi-cloud strategy

Purchase 3-year reserved instances

A company has a hybrid cloud environment. They have a workload that requires low latency and must stay on-premises, but they want to use cloud analytics on the data without moving the data to the cloud. Which pattern should they use?
