Frequently Asked Questions
What is a dedicated host?
A dedicated host is a physical server within the Azure cloud that is exclusively dedicated to your use. This means you do not share the physical hardware with any other Azure customer, providing enhanced isolation and predictable performance.
Who benefits from using dedicated hosts?
Organizations with strict compliance requirements, those running performance-sensitive applications, or businesses that need to meet specific licensing terms (like Bring Your Own License) benefit most from dedicated hosts.
How does this differ from standard Azure virtual machines?
Standard Azure VMs run on shared physical hardware. Dedicated hosts provide you with your own physical server, offering greater control, isolation, and predictable performance characteristics compared to shared environments.
