    Server Description

    A balanced virtual machine combining dedicated Intel Xeon processing, generous memory capacity, and local storage for multi-threaded workloads.

    General PurposeMemory Optimized

    Microsoft Azure D13 is a D-family virtual machine instance configured with 8 dedicated vCPUs and 8 physical cores on an x86_64 Intel Xeon 8272CL processor running at 2.6 GHz. It features 56.0 GB of system memory, yielding 7.0 GB per core, and includes 410 GB of local storage. Operating under the Microsoft Hyper-V hypervisor, the instance lacks GPU accelerators. Benchmark data reveals a performance profile where single-core execution is weak, but multi-core operations, memory bandwidth, and database operations perform at an average level. Qualitatively, the D13 offers a balanced resource density, making it cost-efficient for workloads requiring more memory than standard general-purpose instances without transitioning to expensive memory-optimized tiers. It is best suited for multi-threaded applications, software compilation, static web serving, and moderate database workloads.

    Workload Profiles

    0.615Score
    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.
