Compute / High Memory
Keep larger working sets close.
Memory-focused virtual machines for applications that hold larger datasets, indexes, or caches in RAM. Compare the full configuration to match memory capacity with CPU and storage needs.

Database working sets
Give a self-managed database room for frequently accessed data and indexes.
Application caches
Run the cache software of your choice and size it for your dataset and eviction policy.
Memory-heavy processing
Evaluate analytics and batch jobs that need a larger in-memory working set.
Size for the way you work.
Estimate the dataset, index overhead, connections, and peak job memory. Track actual use as the dataset grows rather than filling all available RAM on day one.
Compare the tradeoffsBefore you deploy
Memory does not replace a recovery plan. Keep application-aware backups and test recovery for the database or service you install.
