    CPU and System Topology

    Server Description

    A 64-core ARM-based virtual machine featuring high-speed local NVMe storage and exceptional multi-threaded performance for database and compilation workloads.

    General PurposeStorage & Database

    The Microsoft Azure D64pds_v6 is an ARM-based virtual machine powered by a 64-core Microsoft Neoverse-N2 processor running at 3.4 GHz. It features 256 GB of RAM, providing a balanced 4 GB per core, and includes 3780 GB of local NVMe SSD storage. Operating on Microsoft Hyper-V, this instance delivers top-tier multi-core CPU performance and exceptional memory bandwidth, ranking in the top 10% for multi-threaded decompression, software compilation, and database operations. Conversely, its single-core performance remains in the average tier. This hardware profile offers a cost-effective, resource-dense solution for parallelized workloads. The D64pds_v6 is highly suited for database hosting, static web serving, software development pipelines, and multi-threaded data processing tasks.

    Workload Profiles

    4.1Score
    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.
