Hello Microsoft Partners!

I recently came across this guidance from the Azure Support team on how to address Azure VM performance issues.  This is one of the most common issues that Support deals with so wanted to share the guidance with you.

Step 1: Start with the fundamentals

Step 2: Learn about Azure PerfInsights and Azure diagnostics

Step 3: Learn about troubleshooting

Per the Azure Support team, the number one root cause of VM performance issues is related to wrong storage configuration. Another common issue is that the amount of storage is a limiting factor for the workload. Read this article for generic troubleshooting info for VMs running on Linux or Windows.

Of course, if you’re still having issues you can always reach out to Azure Support for help.
