-**Cloud-integrated backup:** Azure Backup Server protects workloads to disk and the cloud. The backup and recovery workflow of Azure Backup Server helps you manage long-term retention and offsite backup.

-**Detect and protect VMs managed by vCenter:** Azure Backup Server detects and protects VMs deployed on a vCenter or ESXi server. Azure Backup Server also detects VMs managed by vCenter so that you can protect large deployments.

-**Folder-level auto protection:** vCenter lets you organize your VMs in VM folders. Azure Backup Server detects these folders. You can use it to protect VMs at the folder level, including all subfolders. When protecting folders, Azure Backup Server protects the VMs in that folder and protects VMs added later. Azure Backup Server detects new VMs daily, protecting them automatically. As you organize your VMs in recursive folders, Azure Backup Server automatically detects and protects the new VMs deployed in the recursive folders.

### Determine the size of the VM

Use the [MABS Capacity Planner](https://www.microsoft.com/download/details.aspx) to determine the correct VM size. Based on your inputs, the capacity planner will give you the required memory size and CPU core count. Use this information to choose the appropriate Azure VM size. The capacity planner also provides total disk size required for the VM along with the required disk IOPS. We recommend using a standard SSD disk for the VM. By pooling more than one SSD, you can achieve the required IOPS.

Follow the instructions in the [Create your first Windows VM in the Azure portal](../virtual-machines/windows/quick-create-portal.md) tutorial. You'll create the VM in the virtual network that you created in the previous step. Start with a gallery image of Windows Server 2019 Datacenter to run the Azure Backup Server.
