    CPU and System Topology

    Server Description

    An AMD-powered general-purpose instance offering balanced compute and memory with dedicated vCPUs and local storage for standard enterprise workloads.

    General PurposeStorage & Database

    Microsoft Azure D8ads_v5 is a general-purpose virtual machine instance configured with 8 dedicated vCPUs and 32.0 GB of RAM, running on an AMD EPYC 7763 processor at 3.525 GHz. Built on the x86_64 architecture under Microsoft Hyper-V, it includes 307 GB of local storage and supports Premium Storage. Performance benchmarks reveal strong single-core CPU execution, though multi-core operations and cryptographic tasks align with average tiers. A key hardware tradeoff is the memory subsystem, where uncached large-block read and write bandwidths perform in the bottom 25%, despite average cached small-block read speeds. This resource profile offers balanced cost efficiency for standard workloads. The instance is suited for static web serving, database operations, Redis deployments, and small-model LLM inference.

    Workload Profiles

    0.448Score
    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.
