* **Resizing** – Because of their specialized hardware, you can only resize compute-intensive instances within the same size family (H-series or compute-intensive A-series). For example, you can only resize an H-series VM from one H-series size to another. In addition, resizing from a non-compute-intensive size to a compute-intensive size is not supported.

## RDMA-capable instances

A subset of the compute-intensive instances (H16r, H16mr, A8, and A9) feature a network interface for remote direct memory access (RDMA) connectivity. (Selected N-series sizes designated with 'r' such as NC24r are also RDMA-capable.) This interface is in addition to the standard Azure network interface available to other VM sizes.

A subset of the compute-intensive instances (A8, A9, H16r, H16mr, HB and HC) feature a network interface for remote direct memory access (RDMA) connectivity. Selected N-series sizes designated with 'r' such as the NC24rs configurations (NC24rs_v2 and NC24rs_v3) are also RDMA-capable. This interface is in addition to the standard Azure network interface available to other VM sizes.

This interface allows the RDMA-capable instances to communicate over an InfiniBand (IB) network, operating at FDR rates for H16r, H16mr, and RDMA-capable N-series virtual machines, and QDR rates for A8 and A9 virtual machines. These RDMA capabilities can boost the scalability and performance of certain Message Passing Interface (MPI) applications.

This interface allows the RDMA-capable instances to communicate over an InfiniBand (IB) network, operating at EDR rates for HB, HC, FDR rates for H16r, H16mr, and RDMA-capable N-series virtual machines, and QDR rates for A8 and A9 virtual machines. These RDMA capabilities can boost the scalability and performance of certain Message Passing Interface (MPI) applications. For more information on speed, see the details in the tables on this page.
