Microsoft D8as v4 Azure Virtual Machine Reserved Instance

Apply Azure reserved-instance coverage to eligible D8as v4 virtual machine usage in the US North Central region. The D8as v4 configuration supplies 8 vCPUs and 32 GiB of memory, placing it in the general-purpose D-series range for workloads that need balanced CPU and memory resources rather than a compute- or memory-specialized VM profile. D8as v4 is part of the Azure Das v4 family, whose “a” designation identifies the AMD-based variant. Its eight-vCPU size provides a step between smaller general-purpose VM allocations and larger D-series instances, while 32 GiB of memory supports services that need more headroom than compact web or utility workloads. Common technical roles include multi-tier application components, departmental databases, virtual desktop supporting services, build agents, and self-managed infrastructure workloads hosted in Azure. DZH318Z0CM2C-00V1 applies specifically to the D8as v4 designation and the US North Central Azure region. Match the reservation to the deployed VM family, size, and region so eligible running usage can receive reserved-instance coverage. It does not describe a physical server, a perpetual software license, or a general Azure credit; it is a cloud licensing item associated with the stated Azure virtual machine configuration.
