Thousands of customers today run some of their largest mission-critical workloads on tens of thousands of Azure M-series virtual machines. M series is the platform customers trust to run in-memory SAP HANA workloads in Azure. In response to customer demand to apply the latest Intel technologies, improved performance, and yet higher reliability, today we are announcing the public preview of the next generation of M-series medium memory (MM) virtual machine sizes. Mv3 MM VMs are supported for RISE with SAP customers as well.
Key features on the new Mv3 MM VMs for memory-optimized workloads
-
Powered by the 4th Generation Intel® Xeon® Scalable Processor and DDR5 DRAM technology, the Mv3 medium memory (MM) virtual machines can scale for workloads from 240GB to 3TB with faster performance and lower TCO.
-
With Azure Boost, Mv3 MM provides a ~25% improvement in network throughput and up to 1.5X improvement in remote storage throughput over the previous M-series families.
-
Azure Boost’s isolated architecture inherently improves security for Mv3 MM virtual machines by running storage and networking processes separately on the purpose-built hardware, instead of on the host server.
-
Designed from the ground up for increased resilience against failures in memory, disks, and networking based on intelligence from past generations.
-
Available in both disk and diskless offerings allowing customers the flexibility to choose the option that best meets their workload needs.
