Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between DDv4 and other Azure VM series?
The DDv4 series is compute-optimized, offering a high ratio of vCPUs to memory, and includes local SSD storage. This makes it ideal for CPU-intensive applications and workloads that benefit from fast storage, distinguishing it from memory-optimized or general-purpose VM series.
Can I use local SSD storage for operating system disks?
Local SSD storage on DDv4 VMs is intended for temporary data and application data that can tolerate loss if the underlying host fails. It is not recommended for operating system disks or data that requires persistent storage.
How does subscription billing work for these virtual machines?
Subscription billing means you pay a recurring fee for the use of the virtual machine resources. This model provides predictable operational expenses and allows you to scale your cloud infrastructure up or down based on your business needs.
