This project is originally a copy of azure-instances.info, which has not been updated since 2022 and archived since 2024.
I found this to previously be an invaluable tool in comparing Azure VM sizes and, perhaps more importantly, quickly determining which VMs met my minimum requirements.
Vantage and tools like it are great (and Vantage started as the ultimate source of this project - ec2-instances.info) - but they focus on the commercials of Azure VMs rather than their technical capabilities. This isn't a bad thing, and is an important consideration when choosing the size and deployment region for your IaaS resources - but it's not the full story. This tool aims to provide both the technical and commercial data to allow users to make a fully informed decision.
Sure is! Which is the second reason for this project - personal growth! My background hasn't involved a lot of front-end web hosting and I hope to use this project as an opportunity to improve my understanding of front-end frameworks and tools; initially maintaining this HTML/CSS/JS static site, and perhaps in the future migrating to something like a Blazor app. Who know's where the journey takes me.
I also control the data that I publish in this project, which means that I can improve it in ways that other projects don't allow me to - for example, adding Managed Disk specifications and costs for comparison too.
I welcome anyone to call out issues with the project and it's implementation; however, given this is intended as a journey of personal growth I would not accept enhancements or fixes at this time.
Please do! The licensing allows for anyone to copy this project, so long as it is used only for open-source projects.
