Azure VM Deployment & Configuration Guide

Virtual machines in Azure can be created from provided images or custom images. They can be deployed and managed through the Azure portal, PowerShell, CLI, SDKs or REST APIs. Configuration options include operating system, VM size which determines resources, region, and extensions. When provisioned, the VM is allocated compute, networking, and storage resources. VM sizes are optimized for general purpose, compute, memory, storage, graphics, or high performance needs.

Virtual Machine deployment options,

configuration choices and VM sizes


Virtual Machine deployment options

• Azure Virtual Machines will let you create and use virtual machines in the cloud as
Infrastructure as a Service.

• You can use an image provided by Azure or partners or use your own to create the same.

• Virtual machines can be created and managed using

• Azure portal

• Azure Powershell and ARM templates

• Azure CLI

• Client SDK’s

• REST APIs
Virtual Machine configuration choices

• Following are the configuration choices that Azure offers while creating a Virtual Machine

• Operating system (Windows & Linux)

• VM size which determines factors such as processing power, how many disks you can
attach etc.

• Region where VM will be hosted

• VM extensions which gives additional capabilities such as running anti-virus etc.

• Compute, Networking & Storage elements will get created during the provisioning of the Virtual
Machine.
VM Sizes
Type Sizes Description

Dv2, DS, D, Av2, A0-7 development, small to medium databases, and low to
medium traffic web servers.
Compute optimized Fsv2, Fs, F High CPU-to-memory ratio. Good for medium traffic web
servers, network appliances, batch processes, and
application servers.
Memory optimized Esv3, Ev3, M, GS, G, High memory-to-CPU ratio. Great for relational database
DSv2, DS, Dv2, D servers, medium to large caches, and in-memory
analytics.
Storage optimized Ls High disk throughput and IO. Ideal for Big Data, SQL,
and NoSQL databases.
GPU NV, NC, NCv2, ND Specialized virtual machines targeted for heavy graphic
rendering and video editing. Available with single or
multiple GPUs.
