    CPU and System Topology

    Server Description

    A low-memory, dedicated compute instance featuring a high-clock Intel processor and fast local NVMe SSD storage for lightweight workloads.

    Compute OptimizedStorage & Database

    The Microsoft Azure D2lds_v7 is a low-memory, x86_64 virtual machine featuring 2 dedicated vCPUs from a single physical Intel Xeon 6973P-C core clocked at 4.2 GHz. Equipped with 4.0 GB of RAM and a bundled 118 GB local NVMe SSD, this instance is designed for compute-focused workloads with minimal memory requirements. Performance benchmarks show strong single-threaded capabilities, such as high gzip compression speeds, though multi-core scaling and memory bandwidth remain limited. The server is highly cost-efficient for lightweight applications, serving as an entry-level option for utility scripting, basic web serving, and development tasks that benefit from dedicated CPU cycles and fast local storage without the overhead of a larger memory footprint.

    Performance

    Workload Profiles

    0.3Score
    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.
