Low-Priority Virtual Machines in Azure Batch | Azure Friday
Mark Scurrell joins Scott Hanselman to talk about low-priority virtual machines (VMs) from Azure Batch, which you can use to reduce the cost of Batch workloads. Low-priority VMs make new types of Batch workloads possible by providing a large amount of compute power that is also economical, taking advantage of surplus capacity in Azure when it's available. When you specify low-priority VMs in your pools, Azure Batch can automatically use this surplus when available.
For more information, see:
- Azure Batch (overview)
- Compare Batch pricing with low-priority VMs
- Use low-priority VMs with Batch (docs)
