I need help increasing the size of my current VM

Hi, I currently have set up a Standard NV16as v4 VM, which was the largest N-series VM I could find. We process LIDAR data and work with large data sets. Currently we use our internal own server with 32 cores and 128GB RAM but have outgrown it and would like to move our data processing here. This means our requirements are a VM with at least 64 cores and 256GB RAM. I'd appreciate some guidance on how to achieve this. Region etc is not important at this stage.

Thanks,
Carl

    Hello Carl Danielsson,

    Thanks for your question

    You can take a look at the VM series https://azure.microsoft.com/en-gb/pricing/details/virtual-machines/series/

    You can check Compute-Optimized VMs in the Fsv2-series and Memory-Optimized VMs in the E-series with High memory-to-vCPU ratio as they should suit your workload.

    You can mark it 'Accept Answer' and 'Upvote' if this helped you
