    CPU and System Topology

    Server Description

    A high-frequency AMD EPYC compute instance featuring fast local NVMe storage and top-tier single-core benchmark performance for memory-lean workloads.

    Compute OptimizedStorage & DatabaseGeneral Purpose

    Microsoft Azure D16alds_v7 is an x86_64 server in the Daldsv7 family, powered by a 16-vCPU AMD EPYC 9V45 processor running at 4.5 GHz. It features 32.0 GB of RAM, establishing a 1:2 vCPU-to-memory ratio, and includes a 945 GB local NVMe SSD. Operating under Microsoft Hyper-V, this instance delivers top-tier single-core performance, as evidenced by high stress-ng and Geekbench single-core scores, alongside top-tier single-threaded compression and small LLM text generation. Multi-core compute, memory bandwidth, and database operations perform at average levels. This resource profile offers qualitative cost efficiency for compute-heavy tasks that do not require large memory footprints. It fits workloads such as single-threaded processing, software compilation, web serving, and database applications with moderate memory demands.

    Workload Profiles

    1Score
    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.
