Announcing the addition of the D192 size to the Azure Dsv6 and Ddsv6-series Virtual Machines families, powered by the 5th Generation Intel® Xeon® Platinum 8573C (Emerald Rapids) processor. Dsv6-series virtual machines use Azure managed disks only, while Ddsv6-series virtual machines offer local, temp storage disks. These sizes are now generally available in several Azure regions.
These new VM sizes offer 192 vCPUs and 768 GiB of RAM, making them ideal for general-purpose workloads such as enterprise-grade applications like SAP, SQL, in-memory analytics platforms, and large relational databases. They are also suitable for web and application servers with moderate to heavy traffic, batch processing tasks, developer and test environments, and other workloads requiring a balance of CPU performance and memory resources.
Azure Boost delivers up to 400k IOPS and 12 GB/s remote storage throughput for these VMs with NVMe-enabled local and remote storage for scalable performance. Additionally, Intel® Total Memory Encryption (TME) provides secure memory data protection.
Key Highlights
- Large Size: 192 vCPUs with 768 GiB of RAM for demanding workloads.
- Azure Boost: Up to 400K IOPS and 12 GB/s remote storage throughput and up to 82 Gbps network bandwidth.
- Security First: Intel® TME ensures data protection in system memory.
- NVMe Interface: 3X improvement in local storage IOPS for low-latency access.
