Overview

Azure has added the D192 size to its Dsv6 and Ddsv6-series Virtual Machine families. These new VM sizes are powered by the 5th Generation Intel® Xeon® Platinum 8573C (Emerald Rapids) processor and are available in many Azure regions.

  • Dsv6-series: Uses Azure managed disks only.
  • Ddsv6-series: Offers local, temporary storage disks.

Use Cases

The D192 VM sizes are designed for general-purpose and high-performance workloads, such as:

  • Enterprise applications: SAP, SQL Server, in-memory analytics platforms, and large relational databases
  • Web and application servers (moderate to heavy traffic)
  • Batch processing tasks
  • Developer and test environments
  • Other CPU/memory intensive applications

Key Features

  • 192 vCPUs and 768 GiB RAM: Meets demanding compute and memory requirements.
  • Azure Boost: Up to 400K IOPS, 12 GB/s remote storage throughput, and up to 82 Gbps network bandwidth. More on Azure Boost.
  • NVMe Interface: Provides significant improvement in local storage IOPS (3x performance for low-latency access).
