    CPU and System Topology

    Server Description

    An entry-level ARM64 virtual machine featuring dedicated physical cores and low memory capacity for lightweight, single-threaded utility workloads.

    Compute OptimizedGeneral Purpose

    Microsoft Azure D2pls_v6 is an ARM-based virtual machine from the Dplsv6 family, featuring 2 dedicated vCPUs on a 3.4 GHz Microsoft Neoverse-N2 processor and 4.0 GB of RAM. Operating under Microsoft Hyper-V, this instance lacks bundled local storage and GPU accelerators but supports premium storage. Performance benchmarks reveal strong single-threaded capabilities, notably in gzip compression, alongside average single-core processing. However, multi-core performance, memory write bandwidth, and database operations are weak, constrained by the low memory-to-core ratio of 2.0 GB per vCPU. Qualitatively, this server represents a budget-friendly entry point for dedicated ARM compute. It is best suited for lightweight, single-threaded workloads, basic text processing, and low-demand utility services.

    Workload Profiles

    0.29Score
    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.
