      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      An ARM-based virtual machine with dedicated physical cores and balanced memory, designed for lightweight utility workloads and cost-efficient application hosting.

      General Purpose

      The Microsoft Azure D2ps_v6 is a general-purpose virtual machine from the Dpsv6 family, powered by an ARM64 Microsoft Neoverse-N2 processor. It features 2 dedicated physical cores (2 vCPUs) running at 3.4 GHz, paired with 8.0 GB of RAM, translating to 4.0 GB of memory per core. This instance lacks local storage and integrated GPUs but supports Premium Storage. Performance benchmarks reveal average single-core capabilities, with a stress-ng single-core score of 2074.78 and strong single-threaded gzip compression at 33.08 GB/sec. However, multi-core and memory-intensive tasks are relatively weak, as evidenced by a Geekbench multi-core score of 3069.0 and a Passmark memory score of 1025.96. Qualitatively, the D2ps_v6 provides a cost-effective entry point for ARM-native development, lightweight web serving, and basic utility workloads that do not require high memory bandwidth or parallel processing power.

      Workload Profiles

      0.28Score
      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.
