    CPU and System Topology

    Server Description

    A balanced general-purpose virtual machine featuring dedicated AMD EPYC processors, local SSD storage, and strong single-core performance.

    General Purpose

    The Microsoft Azure D16as_v4 is a general-purpose virtual machine from the DASv4 family, powered by an AMD EPYC 7763 processor running on the Microsoft Hyper-V hypervisor. It features 16 dedicated vCPUs, 64.0 GB of RAM, and a local 131 GB SSD, with support for Premium Storage. Benchmarks indicate strong single-core CPU performance and memory scores, alongside average multi-core and memory bandwidth capabilities. With its balanced 1:4 vCPU-to-RAM ratio, the D16as_v4 provides a reliable, cost-efficient platform for general-purpose enterprise workloads, including database operations, web serving, and software compilation.

    Workload Profiles

    0.81Score
    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.
