Still running v4 or v5 VM SKUs? You're leaving performance and money on the table. Azure Boost-enabled v6 SKUs deliver up to 400k IOPS, 12 GB/s remote storage throughput, and 200 Gbps network bandwidth at better price-performance than their predecessors. The NVMe interface for local and remote disks triples local storage IOPS. And with the recently released v7 SKUs, the bar moves even higher: up to 800k IOPS and 400 Gbps networking.
In this session, I'll show why regular SKU upgrades aren't optional - they're an operational necessity. We'll look at what Azure Boost changes under the hood, what migration constraints to watch for and how to plan the transition reliably.
