GPU Optimized Azure Dedicated Host SKUs

Azure Dedicated Host SKUs are the combination of a VM family and a certain hardware specification. You can only deploy VMs of the VM series that the Dedicated Host SKU specifies. For example, on the Dsv3-Type3, you can only provision Dsv3-series VMs.

This document goes through the hardware specifications and VM packings for all GPU optimized Dedicated Host SKUs.

Limitations

The sizes and hardware types available for dedicated hosts vary by region. Refer to the host pricing page to learn more.
