I feel like I should know this, but I keep mixing up the Windows and Linux options for confidential VMs.

I practiced a similar question about VM types last week, and I think it was mostly about the security features they offer.

I think the confidential VMs are mostly the ones with the latest generation of processors, but I can't recall the exact models.

I remember studying the different types of Azure VMs, but I'm not entirely sure which ones qualify as confidential.

I've got a strategy for this. I'll first identify the Windows VMs with the "Confidential VM" label, and then do the same for the Linux VMs. That should give me the answer I need.

I'm a bit confused by the question. Can someone clarify what exactly we're looking for in terms of the Windows and Linux VMs that can be deployed as confidential?

I've got this! The Windows VMs that can be deployed as confidential are the ones with the "Confidential VM" label, and the Linux VMs are the ones with the "Confidential VM" label as well.

Okay, let me take a closer look at the table and the image. I think I can figure this out, but I might need to double-check a few things.

Hmm, this looks like a tricky one. I'll need to carefully analyze the virtual machine details and determine which ones can be deployed as confidential VMs.

Windows Server 2019 Datacenter and Ubuntu Server 18.04 LTS can be deployed as confidential virtual machines. The image clearly shows these options as available for confidential VMs.
