Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between DSv4 and other Azure VM series?
The DSv4 series is optimized for a balance of compute, memory, and local SSD storage, making it suitable for a wide range of general-purpose workloads. It offers enhanced performance over older series due to its processor and storage capabilities.
Can I use this VM for production workloads?
Yes, the DSv4 series is designed for production workloads that require a good balance of performance and cost. Its features support demanding applications, databases, and web servers.
How does the local SSD storage work?
Local SSD storage is physically attached to the host server running your VM. It provides very high IOPS and low latency, ideal for temporary storage, caching, or workloads that benefit from fast disk access. Data on local SSD is ephemeral and lost if the VM is stopped or deallocated.
