      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      An entry compute-focused instance with dedicated AMD EPYC cores, offering strong single-threaded performance for lightweight web and microservice workloads.

      Compute Optimized

      Microsoft Azure D4als_v6 is a compute-focused x86_64 virtual machine powered by a 3.7 GHz AMD EPYC 9V74 processor running under Microsoft Hyper-V. It provides 4 dedicated vCPUs split across 2 physical cores, 32 MB of L3 cache, and 8.0 GB of system memory, yielding a 2.0 GB per vCPU memory density. The instance includes no attached GPUs or local disk storage. Performance tests demonstrate strong single-core execution capability, particularly in single-threaded CPU benchmarks and text processing tasks. Conversely, multi-core throughput and memory bandwidth benchmarks show lower efficiency, with uncached read speeds and memory operations falling into lower percentiles. The unit delivers steady results for static web serving and key-value database operations like Redis. D4als_v6 offers a streamlined, cost-effective profile tailored for lightweight web applications, microservices, and single-thread bound processing workloads that do not require extensive RAM or local storage.

      Workload Profiles

      0.33Score
      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.
