Server Description
A memory-intensive virtual machine featuring dedicated Intel processors, massive RAM capacity, and bundled local storage for demanding database workloads.
Microsoft Azure FX36mds is an x86_64 architecture virtual machine within the FXMDVS family, optimized for memory-intensive enterprise workloads. Running on the Microsoft Hyper-V hypervisor, this instance provides 36 dedicated vCPUs powered by Intel processors, paired with 756.0 GB of system memory, yielding a high ratio of 21.0 GB of RAM per vCPU. The hardware configuration includes 1548 GB of bundled local storage and supports Premium Storage for demanding I/O requirements, though it lacks dedicated GPU hardware and complimentary public IPv4 addresses. This resource profile delivers high memory density relative to compute capacity, offering a balanced cost-to-resource ratio for memory-bound applications. The FX36mds is designed for workloads such as large-scale in-memory databases, enterprise resource planning systems, and data analytics pipelines.
