Azure compute cluster core count not the same as NVIDIA core count

Question

Hi,

I'm using Azure compute cluster Standard_NC6s_v3 which runs on 1 x NVIDIA GPU Tesla V100. On Azure, this compute cluster is listed as having 6 cores. NVIDIA lists Tesla® V100 as having 640 Tensor Cores. What's the reason behind this discrepancy and how many cores am I actually utilizing when running my job on NVIDIA Tesla V100?

Thanks
