Follow the step-by-step wizard, configuring the virtual machine settings
- Choose the appropriate VM image (e.g., Windows Server or Ubuntu Server)
- Select the VM size based on your HPC requirements (CPU cores, RAM, GPU, etc.)
- Configure networking settings (virtual network and subnet)
- Set up storage options (e.g., premium SSD disks for high IOPS)
- Review and create the VM within your resource group
Step 4: Configure for High Performance
- In the Azure portal, navigate to your newly created VM.
- Under “Settings,” click “Networking.”
- Enable “Accelerated Networking” for high-throughput, low-latency networking.
- Under “Settings,” click “Disks.”
- Attach additional data disks or configure disk striping for increased storage performance.
- Connect to the VM and install any required software or libraries for your HPC workload.
How To Use Azure Virtual Machines For High-Performance Computing ?
Through Azure Virtual Machines, HPC jobs can take advantage of the platform’s powerful and scalable nature, which is offered in the cloud environment. The possibility to boot virtual machines chosen for compute-intensive purposes helps to execute, e.g., simulations and big data analysis with ease. From one-node Batch compute virtual machines to fine-tuned compute pipe using Azure Batch or Azure CycleCloud solutions, you may choose between the broadest range of computing infrastructure for your HPC needs. Azure provides a large number of VM sizes with full cores CPU, and high-end memory configuration to handle even the toughest computational tasks.
