Hardware Assisted virtualization on Integration Studio?

Hi Jakob Drescher ,

From Wiki, "Hardware-Assisted Virtualization":

"...is a platform virtualization approach that enables efficient full virtualization using help from hardware capabilities, primarily from the host processors."

Integration Studio is hosted on Azure infrastructure, which could certainly have High Availability Virtualization and efficient full virtualization capabilities. I don't have specific details about the Azure side of things, but I can tell you that they are hosted on DSv2 series:

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-machines/dv2-dsv2-series

"DSv2-series sizes run on the 3rd Generation Intel® Xeon® Platinum 8370C (Ice Lake), Intel® Xeon® Platinum 8272CL (Cascade Lake), Intel® Xeon® 8171M 2.1GHz (Skylake) or the the Intel® Xeon® E5-2673 v4 2.3 GHz (Broadwell), or the Intel® Xeon® E5-2673 v3 2.4 GHz (Haswell) processors with Intel Turbo Boost Technology 2.0 and use premium storage."

I will invite someone from R&D or Integration Studio Product Management to comment on this further.

But please note that Integration Studio is not meant for Production Environments or systems:

"Note: Integration Studio is intended for use as a platform to develop and test software applications. It should not be used to operate a live production facility."

Hope this information helps.

Kind regards

Olivier

Thanks for the comments. I often meet the "performance discussion" with IT and virtualization teams. Good to know some of the background.
