1.4.3.2. Machine Size and Instance Type

Each machine instance type specifies the memory size and number of CPU cores of the virtual machine.
  1. Click View All to view all the machines available.
    Figure 4. Available Machine Sizes
  2. Find a server size that meets the physical memory requirements for the device family. The Azure* Memory-Optimized EV3 series has instance types with high memory capacity.
    In the Intel® Quartus® Prime Pro Edition software version 17.1, memory requirements for Intel® Arria® 10 devices range from 18 GB to 48 GB. Intel® Stratix® 10 memory requirements range from 80 GB to 128 GB. For information about other devices, refer to Intel® Quartus® Prime Pro Edition Software and Device Support Release Notes .
    Note: Machine availability varies with the location of the Azure* datacenter. If the instance type that you want is not available in the current location, select a different location.
  3. Click Select.
Note: In the Intel® Quartus® Prime software, using a machine with a higher number of processors can reduce compilation time. To take advantage of this, specify the number of processors for compilation. For more information, refer to Enabling Multi-Processor Compilation in Intel® Quartus® Prime Pro Edition Handbook Volume 1 .
