Large OS Disk Encryption Is GA for Azure Confidential VM Migrations

Moving big, production-scale workloads into confidential computing has often meant compromising on the OS disk. That gap just closed: Large OS Disk Encryption (LOSDE) is now generally available for Azure Confidential VM migration scenarios.

The key takeaway is that larger workloads can now move into confidential computing with the OS disk fully protected, instead of being held back by disk size constraints. If you have been postponing a lift-and-shift of a heavy VM because of this limit, this is the status change to look at. The announcement is marked Generally Available, so it is ready for production planning.
