    CPU and System Topology

    Server Description

    A network-optimized, low-memory virtual machine featuring dedicated Intel Xeon processing for single-threaded workloads and lightweight web serving.

    Compute OptimizedGeneral Purpose

    Microsoft Azure D4nls_v6 is a network-optimized, low-memory virtual machine instance from the Dnlv6 family, powered by an Intel Xeon 8573C processor. Operating on the Microsoft Hyper-V hypervisor, this x86_64 instance provides 4 dedicated vCPUs across 2 physical cores at a clock speed of 4.2 GHz, supported by 8.0 GB of RAM. It lacks local storage and GPUs but supports premium remote storage. Benchmark data shows average single-core CPU performance and static web serving throughput of 6.5 GB/sec, though multi-core and memory bandwidth metrics are relatively weak. The instance is qualitatively cost-efficient for workloads requiring dedicated CPU cycles without high memory overhead. It is best suited for lightweight web serving, network-optimized tasks, and single-threaded applications.

    Workload Profiles

    0.387Score
    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.
