What tools does the Azure Data Science Virtual Machine include?

  • Articol

You can use the Data Science Virtual Machine (DSVM) to easily explore data and handle machine learning in the cloud. A DSVM is preconfigured with security patches, drivers, popular data science and development software, and a complete operating system. You can choose the hardware environment that works for you, ranging from lower-cost CPU-centric machines to powerful machines with multiple GPUs, NVMe storage, and large amounts of memory. For machines with GPUs, all drivers are installed, and all machine learning frameworks are version-matched for GPU compatibility. Additionally, acceleration is enabled in all application software that supports GPUs.

The DSVM comes with the most useful data-science tools preinstalled.
