    Server Description

    An ARM64 compute-focused instance featuring sixty-four dedicated physical cores and a balanced memory-to-core ratio for multi-threaded workloads.

    Compute OptimizedGeneral Purpose

    Microsoft Azure D64pls_v5 is an ARM64 server instance from the DPLSv5 family, featuring 64 dedicated physical cores powered by an Ampere Neoverse-N1 processor running at 3.0 GHz. Equipped with 128.0 GB of RAM, it maintains a compute-oriented 1:2 vCPU-to-RAM ratio. The instance lacks bundled local storage and GPUs but supports Premium Storage. Benchmark results show weak single-core performance, but strong multi-core scaling, particularly in software compilation, ray tracing, and stress-ng multi-core tests. Memory bandwidth for cached small blocks is strong, while large-block uncached operations and database tasks perform at average levels. Redis SET operations are highly efficient, achieving 80.12 million operations per second. This instance is suited for multi-threaded workloads, software development pipelines, and web serving applications that leverage high core counts over large memory footprints.

    Workload Profiles

    2.62Score
    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.
