Cloudera Operational Database (COD) has updated the instance type for Azure deployments

When you create and deploy an operational database in an Azure environment, by default, COD clusters now use Standard_D8s_v3 instance type instead of Standard_D8_v3. The instance type is upgraded to support encryption at the host level.

If you want to retain the Standard_D8_v3 instance type, you must have the COD_USE_DV3_INSTANCE_TYPE entitlement on your account.

This is available starting in COD v1.41 and you do not need to upgrade to a higher version of COD to benefit from this feature.
