Microsoft D48ds v4 1-Year Azure Government Reservation

Apply a one-year reserved-instance commitment to Microsoft Azure Government usage of the D48ds v4 virtual machine configuration in the US DoD East region. DZH318Z0CSHM-01FF corresponds to the D48ds v4 size, which provides 48 vCPUs and 192 GiB of memory for matching deployed virtual machines. The reservation applies to eligible usage rather than deploying, configuring, or operating a virtual machine. D48ds v4 belongs to Azure's D-series general-purpose VM range. Its designation identifies a 48 vCPU configuration with local temporary storage support indicated by the “d” suffix and Premium SSD support indicated by the “s” suffix. Those characteristics make the size relevant where an application needs substantial compute and memory resources while retaining compatibility with Premium SSD-backed managed disks. Temporary storage remains local VM storage and should not be treated as durable application data storage. Select this reservation when the target workload is already sized for D48ds v4 and runs in US DoD East under Azure Government. The one-year term distinguishes it from usage billed without a reservation commitment and from reservations assigned to another VM configuration, region, or term. Match the reservation to the deployed VM size, Azure Government environment, and regional usage so eligible D48ds v4 consumption can receive the reserved-instance billing benefit.
