Smart VM defaults are now generally available in AKS. Smart
VM defaults automatically select the optimal default VM SKU based on available
capacity and quota. This feature ensures that deployments are matched with the
best possible SKU, enhancing performance and reliability while optimizing
resource utilization. Previously, the default AKS VM SKU was typically
Standard_DS2_V2, but now you can expect dynamic outcomes in default
provisioning based on SKU availability.
