Q. How can I check the VM sizes available in a certain Azure region?
A. There is a very easy cmdlet available that lists all the VM sizes available for a certain region. To check all the regions that offer VMs then see the sizes in one of those regions use the following:
$resources = Get-AzureRmResourceProvider -ProviderNamespace Microsoft.Compute
$resources.ResourceTypes.Where{($_.ResourceTypeName -eq 'virtualMachines')}.Locations
Get-AzureRmVmSize -Location "East US" | Sort-Object Name | ft Name, NumberOfCores, MemoryInMB, MaxDataDiskCount -AutoSize
For example:
PS C:\> $resources = Get-AzureRmResourceProvider -ProviderNamespace Microsoft.Compute
PS C:\> $resources.ResourceTypes.Where{($_.ResourceTypeName -eq 'virtualMachines')}.Locations
East US

PS C:\> Get-AzureRmVmSize -Location "East US" | Sort-Object Name | ft Name, NumberOfCores, MemoryInMB, MaxDataDiskCount -AutoSize
