Server Description
A compute-dense, RDMA-enabled server featuring 240 dedicated cores and massive local NVMe storage for high-performance parallel workloads.
Microsoft Azure HB368-240rs_v5 is an x86_64 compute-focused server from the HBv5 family, running on the Microsoft Hyper-V hypervisor. It features 240 dedicated vCPUs powered by an Intel processor, paired with 448.0 GB of system memory, which provides a ratio of 1.87 GB of RAM per core. The instance is equipped with 15,851 GB of local NVMe SSD storage and supports Premium Storage configurations. Designed without a GPU, it relies on RDMA capabilities to facilitate high-throughput, low-latency networking across multi-node clusters. This hardware configuration is optimized for compute-heavy and storage-intensive workloads. It is highly suited for high-performance computing, large-scale parallel processing, distributed databases, and scientific simulations requiring substantial local scratch space and fast inter-node communication.
