Microsoft D48DS V4 Azure VM Reserved Instance

Apply an Azure Reserved Instance to eligible D48ds v4 virtual machine usage in US East 2. The D48ds v4 configuration provides 48 vCPU and 192 GiB of memory, placing it in the larger compute sizes of the Ddsv4 virtual-machine family. It suits sustained workloads that have a defined regional placement and a stable requirement for this instance size. Ddsv4 virtual machines pair Intel-based general-purpose compute with local temporary storage represented by the "d" designation. That local storage is attached to the virtual-machine host and should be treated as temporary workspace rather than persistent application data. Use managed disks, Azure Files, or another persistent Azure storage service when the workload must retain data through host maintenance or virtual-machine lifecycle events. Microsoft DZH318Z0CSHM-00VP applies to the D48ds v4 size in the US East 2 region, so the reservation should match the deployed virtual-machine family, size, and region. It is a reservation entitlement rather than a deployed server or a virtual-machine image. The associated Azure workload, operating system, disks, networking, and application configuration remain separate components of the deployment.
