Compute

Autoscaling is one of the value levers that can help unlock cost savings for your Azure workloads by automatically scaling up and down the resources in use to better align capacity to demand.

Microsoft Azure is committed to providing its customers with industry-leading real-world AI capabilities. In December 2021, Microsoft Azure debuted its leadership performance with the MLPerf training v1.1 results.

At Microsoft Ignite in November 2021, we announced the memory-optimized Ev5 Azure Virtual Machine (VM) series based on the 3rd Gen Intel Xeon Platinum 8370C processor. The Ev5 VMs are designed for memory-intensive business-critical applications, relational database servers, and in-memory data analytics workloads.

The demand for compute capacity to sustain business modernization and digital transformation initiatives continues to grow. Organizations are facing a complex set of challenges as they deploy a broad range of workloads globally, from the edge to the cloud.

Here at Microsoft, we’ve empowered our long-standing partners in the semiconductor industry to embrace Azure’s cloud infrastructure and scale out electronic design automation (EDA).

Confidential computing technology encrypts data in memory and only processes it once the cloud environment is verified, helping protect data from cloud operators, malicious admins, and privileged software.

Continuing with our promise to offer innovative solutions for our customers, we are very excited to announce that our latest NVads A10 v5 series is now available for preview.

Azure HBv3 virtual machines (VMs) are now upgraded to and generally available with AMD EPYC 3rd Gen processors with 3D V-Cache, formerly codenamed “Milan-X”, in the Azure East US, South Central, and West Europe regions.

Imagine getting more from your VMware workloads by easily extending them to the cloud—and optimizing your costs in the process. Azure VMware Solution, a jointly engineered Microsoft and VMware service, makes this possible.

When we launched Azure Spring Cloud with VMware in 2019, we set out to solve common challenges developers, IT operators, and DevOps teams face when running Spring Boot applications at scale.

Welcome to our first Azure HPC + AI Day! We’re excited to host the first event, which will soon become an annual tradition.

For organizations looking to accelerate innovation through improved IT operation and hybrid cloud migration, we’re pleased to announce expanded management capabilities and preview offerings for Linux workloads running on Azure at this year’s Azure Open Source Day.
