Make a Once-in-a-Generation Leap – Migrate to Azure Ampere-based VMs
summary
Azure Dpsv5/Dplsv5/Epsv5 VMs run Ampere Altra ARM64 cores that map each vCPU to a real core with fixed frequency and no SMT or turbo, promising more predictable latency under load and potential cost savings when rightsizing. Migration follows five steps: inventory, build, test, tune and deploy, using tools like Perf and eBPF. Containers and runtimes like OpenJDK and .NET already run, and a practical win is that build PostgreSQL in five lines on ARM64.
