    CPU and System Topology

    Server Description

    A dual-vCPU instance combining high-frequency single-core AMD EPYC performance with local NVMe SSD storage for single-threaded workloads.

    General Purpose

    Microsoft Azure D2ads_v7 is a general-purpose virtual machine from the Dadsv7 family, powered by a 4.5 GHz AMD EPYC 9V45 processor. It features 2 vCPUs, 8.0 GB of RAM, and 118 GB of local NVMe SSD storage. Operating on the x86_64 architecture under the Microsoft Hyper-V hypervisor, this instance exhibits top-tier single-core performance in benchmarks like Geekbench and single-threaded gzip compression. However, its multi-core and multi-threaded capabilities are weak, as reflected in stress-ng and PassMark multi-core tests. The instance provides a qualitatively cost-effective option for workloads that prioritize single-thread execution speed over parallel processing. It is best suited for lightweight tasks, single-threaded scripting, text processing, and basic application hosting.

    Workload Profiles

    0.26Score
    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.
