Hong Ooi announces changes to several AzureR packages:
AzureVM 2.1.0
You can now create VM scalesets with attached data disks. In addition, you can specify the disk type (Standard_LRS, StandardSSD_LRS, or Premium_LRS) for the OS disk and, for a Linux Data Science Virtual Machine, the supplied data disk. This enables using VM sizes that don’t support Premium storage.
