VM sizes

Quake AI concept: Flavors

  • Predefined hardware-optimized series (e.g., D-family general purpose) with complex naming (e.g., Standard_D4as_v5), not user-defined vCPU/RAM like OpenStack flavors.
  • Sizes listed via API /providers/Microsoft.Compute/locations/{location}/vmSizes, region-specific availability.
  • Includes accelerator features (GPU, FPGA) baked into sizes, unavailable in basic OpenStack flavors without extensions.
  • Cannot create custom sizes; selection from catalog, limiting flexibility vs OpenStack flavor creation.
