Reasons to change VM size:
- Performance needs: If your application requires more processing power or memory, you might upgrade to a larger VM size with more vCPUs or RAM.
- Cost optimization: If your current VM is underutilized, you could downgrade to a smaller, less expensive size to reduce costs.
- Scalability: As your workload grows or shrinks, you can adjust the VM size to match your current needs.
- Specific resource requirements: Some applications may need more of one resource (e.g., memory) but not others (e.g., CPU), so you can choose a VM size that best fits those specific needs.
