Answer

DTU is a blend of CPU, Memory, Reads and Writes and a database having 5 DTUs will perform 5 times better than another database having just 1 DTU.

vCore feels similar to the on-prem environment. You can choose the number of cores and size of the database. Based upon the cores that you have chosen changes the maximum size of the database that you can have.
