Microsoft D4ds v4 Azure VM Reserved Instance

Apply a Microsoft Azure Reserved Instance to eligible D4ds v4 virtual machine usage in the US North Central region. DZH318Z0CSHM-016X corresponds to the D4ds v4 configuration with 4 vCPUs and 16 GiB of memory. It is a cloud licensing item rather than a physical server, and it applies to Azure consumption for the matching virtual-machine family, size, and region. D4ds v4 is part of Azure's general-purpose D-series virtual machine range. The 4 vCPU and 16 GiB memory profile suits services that need a balanced compute-to-memory allocation, including application servers, web tiers, development environments, and business-service workloads. The reservation is specific to the D4ds v4 size named here, helping administrators align committed Azure compute use with an established deployment configuration. This ordering code differs from a virtual machine deployment: it does not create, configure, or operate a VM. A matching Azure virtual machine must be deployed separately in the applicable region. It also does not include application software, managed services, or storage capacity. Select this reservation when the intended Azure workload is specifically a D4ds v4 virtual machine in US North Central, rather than another VM series, size, or Azure region.
