 # What is the Azure Data Science Virtual Machine for Linux and Windows?
 
-The Data Science Virtual Machine (DSVM) is a customized VM image on the Azure cloud platform built specifically for doing data science. It has many popular data science tools preinstalled and preconfigured to jump-start building intelligent applications for advanced analytics.
+The Data Science Virtual Machine (DSVM) is a customized VM image available on the Azure cloud platform, and it can handle data science. It has many popular data science tools preinstalled and preconfigured to jump-start building intelligent applications for advanced analytics.
 
 The DSVM is available on:
 
 + Windows Server 2019
 + Windows Server 2022
 + Ubuntu 20.04 LTS
 
-Additionally, we're excited to offer Azure DSVM for PyTorch, which is an Ubuntu 20.04 image from Azure Marketplace that is optimized for large, distributed deep learning workloads. It comes preinstalled and validated with the latest PyTorch version to reduce setup costs and accelerate time to value. It comes packaged with various optimization functionalities (ONNX Runtime​, DeepSpeed​, MSCCL​, ORTMoE​, Fairscale​, Nvidia Apex​), and an up-to-date stack with the latest compatible versions of Ubuntu, Python, PyTorch, CUDA.

 ### Short-term experimentation and evaluation
 
-You can use the DSVM to evaluate or learn new data science [tools](./tools-included.md), especially by going through some of our published [samples and walkthroughs](./dsvm-samples-and-walkthroughs.md).

 ### Deep learning with GPUs
 
-In the DSVM, your training models can use deep learning algorithms on hardware that's based on graphics processing units (GPUs). By taking advantage of the VM scaling capabilities of the Azure platform, the DSVM helps you use GPU-based hardware in the cloud according to your needs. You can switch to a GPU-based VM when you're training large models, or when you need high-speed computations while keeping the same OS disk. You can choose any of the N series GPUs enabled virtual machine SKUs with DSVM. Note GPU enabled virtual machine SKUs aren't supported on Azure free accounts.

 ### Data science training and education
 
-Enterprise trainers and educators who teach data science classes usually provide a virtual machine image. The image ensures students have a consistent setup and that the samples work predictably.

-The DSVM creates an on-demand environment with a consistent setup that eases the support and incompatibility challenges. Cases where these environments need to be built frequently, especially for shorter training classes, benefit substantially.
