VMCategory type
VMCategories defined for Azure VMs.
KnownVMCategory can be used interchangeably with VMCategory,
this enum contains the known values that the service supports.
Known values supported by the service
GeneralPurpose: General purpose VM sizes provide balanced CPU-to-memory ratio. Ideal for testing and development, small to medium databases, and low to medium traffic web servers.
ComputeOptimized: Compute optimized VM sizes have a high CPU-to-memory ratio. These sizes are good for medium traffic web servers, network appliances, batch processes, and application servers.
MemoryOptimized: Memory optimized VM sizes offer a high memory-to-CPU ratio that is great for relational database servers, medium to large caches, and in-memory analytics.
StorageOptimized: Storage optimized virtual machine (VM) sizes offer high disk throughput and IO, and are ideal for Big Data, SQL, NoSQL databases, data warehousing, and large transactional databases.
GpuAccelerated: GPU optimized VM sizes are specialized virtual machines available with single, multiple, or fractional GPUs.
FpgaAccelerated: FPGA optimized VM sizes are specialized virtual machines available with single or multiple FPGA.
HighPerformanceCompute: Azure High Performance Compute VMs are optimized for various HPC workloads such as CFD, FEA, EDA, rendering, molecular dynamics, weather simulation, and financial risk analysis.
