      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      An entry-level general-purpose virtual machine offering dedicated single-core performance for lightweight workloads and basic development environments.

      General Purpose

      The Microsoft Azure D2s_v5 is an x86_64 general-purpose virtual machine from the DSv5 family, configured with 2 dedicated vCPUs from a single physical core of an Intel Xeon 8370C processor running at 2.8 GHz. It features 8.0 GB of system memory, a 48 MB L3 cache, and lacks local storage and GPU accelerators. Performance benchmarks reveal a distinct tradeoff: while single-core execution achieves average marks, multi-core and memory-intensive operations perform poorly, placing in the bottom 10%. Specifically, memory bandwidth and multi-core Geekbench scores are highly constrained. This server is best suited for lightweight, single-threaded applications, basic web serving, and development environments, but is not recommended for database operations or high-throughput multi-threaded tasks.

      Workload Profiles

      0.19Score
      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.
