Azure H-series virtual machines are high performance computing VMs used for high end computational needs, such as molecular modeling, and computational fluid dynamics such as wave calculations. These 8 and 16 core VMs are built on the Intel Haswell E5-2667 V3 processor technology with DDR4 memory and local SSD based storage.
In addition to CPU power, the H-series offers diverse options for low latency RDMA networking using FDR InfiniBand and different memory configurations to support memory intensive computational requirements.
The following performance levels are available with H-series VMs:
