    Server Description

    A high-density, 128-vCPU platform with massive local storage and top-tier memory bandwidth for demanding multi-threaded enterprise workloads.

    General PurposeStorage & DatabaseCompute Optimized

    Microsoft Azure D128ds_v6 is a general-purpose virtual machine from the Ddsv6 family, utilizing the Microsoft Hyper-V hypervisor. It is powered by a dedicated x86_64 Intel Xeon 8573C processor running at 4.2 GHz, offering 64 physical cores, 128 vCPUs, and 512.0 GB of RAM. The server includes 7559 GB of local storage and is Premium Storage capable, but lacks GPU accelerators. Benchmark results show top-tier performance in multi-core processing, memory bandwidth, database operations, and static web serving, while single-core performance remains in the average tier. This high-density configuration is well-suited for parallelized enterprise workloads, large-scale database management, software compilation, and high-throughput web serving.

    Workload Profiles

    6.52Score
    Precomputed compound score for Cache Intensive workloads. A weighted average (geometric mean) of benchmark scores compared to their medians: score = ∏ (x_i / m_i)^(w_i / Σw). The score of 1.0 represents a synthetic baseline server with the median performance of each component benchmark; 0.5 means roughly half the performance; and 2.0 means twice the performance of that reference profile. Component weights: 50% Redis RPS (pipeline=1, SET), 20% Redis RPS (pipeline=16, SET), 10% PassMark Memory Mark (composite), 10% Memory bandwidth (read, 16 MB ~ L3), 10% PassMark single-thread CPU. Rationale for component selection: In-memory key-value store workload, mixing direct Redis performance metrics with memory speed and latency benchmarks, and single-core CPU performance profiles.
