Microsoft D96as v4 Azure Virtual Machine Reservation

Assign capacity for the Microsoft Azure D96as v4 virtual machine in the US North Central region. D96as v4 is a large Dasv4-series configuration with 96 vCPUs and 384 GiB of memory, providing a 4 GiB-per-vCPU memory ratio for compute workloads that need substantial parallel processing capacity. It is a cloud service entitlement rather than physical equipment, with no rack, power, port, or shipping requirements. The D96as v4 size fits Azure-hosted workloads that have sustained CPU demand and require a large memory allocation in one virtual machine. Examples include application tiers with many concurrent worker processes, batch-processing nodes, data transformation services, and virtualized application servers. Selecting the US North Central region keeps the reservation aligned to workloads deployed in that Azure geography; VM size and region must correspond to the intended deployment. DZH318Z0CM2C-00VC identifies the D96as v4 Dasv4 configuration for US North Central. Within the Dasv4 family, this selection specifies the 96-vCPU, 384-GiB size rather than a smaller compute allocation. Review the target Azure workload's VM-size requirement, regional placement, operating system licensing needs, and reservation coverage settings before assignment to ensure the capacity commitment matches the resources that will consume it.
