[Launched] Generally Available: Azure Compute Fleet


Introduction to Azure Compute Fleet

Azure Compute Fleet is a feature designed to simplify and optimize large-scale virtual machine (VM) deployments. It provides accelerated access to Azure's capacity in a given region, allowing users to deploy and manage thousands of VMs efficiently[1][2].

Key Features and Capabilities

  • Scalability and Deployment: Azure Compute Fleet can deploy up to 10,000 VMs in a single API call, combining Spot and Standard VMs. This scalability is beneficial for dynamic applications or large-scale workloads[3][5].
  • Cost Optimization: Compute Fleet offers superior price-performance ratios by utilizing a mix of pricing models, including Reserved Instances, Savings Plans, Spot Instances, and pay-as-you-go options[1][5].
  • Flexibility in VM Sizes: Users can mix up to 15 different VM sizes and families within a single fleet, tailoring deployments to specific workload needs[3].
  • Simplified Management: The "Fire & Forget-it" model automates the deployment, management, and monitoring of VMs, reducing scripting complexity and saving time[1].

Availability and Pricing

  • General Availability: Azure Compute Fleet is generally available, with early 2025 marking significant updates[3].
  • Pricing: There is no extra charge for using Compute Fleet; users are only charged for the VMs launched within the fleet[2].

Supported Regions and SKUs

  • Supported Regions: East US, East US2, West US, and West US2 currently support Azure Compute Fleet[5].
  • Supported SKUs: Most VM SKUs are supported, excluding B-series and promo versions, such as Dv2, NV, NC, H promo sizes for Spot VMs[5].
