    CPU and System Topology

    Server Description

    An entry-level general-purpose virtual machine featuring strong single-core CPU performance and dedicated AMD EPYC resources for lightweight workloads.

    General Purpose

    The Microsoft Azure D2as_v4 is a general-purpose virtual machine from the DASv4 family, utilizing the Microsoft Hyper-V hypervisor. It is equipped with an x86_64 AMD EPYC 7763 processor operating at 3.525 GHz, offering 2 dedicated vCPUs (1 physical core, 2 threads), 8.0 GB of RAM, and 16 GB of local storage with Premium Storage capability. Performance benchmarks indicate a strong single-core CPU capability, ranking in the top 25% for stress-ng single-core tests. However, multi-core performance and memory bandwidth are constrained, with Geekbench multi-core and Passmark database operations scoring in the bottom 10%. This instance represents an entry-level general-purpose option, making it qualitatively cost-effective for lightweight, single-threaded applications, basic web serving, and development environments where high multi-core throughput and intensive memory operations are not required.

    Workload Profiles

    0.155Score
    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.
