Microsoft E48ds v4 Azure VM Reservation – US West Central

Apply a Microsoft Azure Reserved Instance to E48ds v4 compute usage in the US West Central Azure region. DZH318Z0CSHK-0186 corresponds to the E48ds v4 configuration in the Edsv4 virtual machine series, a memory-optimized Azure compute family for workloads that need substantial memory per virtual CPU. The reservation is a cloud licensing entitlement rather than physical equipment. The E48ds v4 virtual machine configuration provides 48 virtual CPUs and 384 GiB of memory. Its “d” designation identifies local temporary storage, while the “s” designation supports Premium SSD managed disks. These characteristics suit memory-intensive application servers, database workloads, analytics processes, and enterprise services where memory capacity is a primary sizing consideration. Use this reservation where deployed Azure workloads are specifically sized as E48ds v4 in US West Central. It is scoped to this VM designation and region rather than serving as a general-purpose reservation for unrelated VM families or regions. Confirm the target Azure virtual machines use the matching E48ds v4 size before assigning the reservation so eligible compute consumption can receive the reserved-instance pricing treatment.
