    CPU and System Topology

    Server Description

    A balanced general-purpose virtual machine featuring dedicated AMD EPYC processors, local SSD storage, and strong single-core CPU performance.

    General PurposeStorage & Database

    Microsoft Azure D8ads_v5 is an x86_64 general-purpose virtual machine powered by an AMD EPYC 7763 processor running at 3.525 GHz. It features 8 dedicated vCPUs across 4 physical cores, 32.0 GB of RAM, and a bundled 307 GB local SSD. Benchmark data indicates strong single-core CPU performance, while multi-core processing, software compilation, and database operations perform at average levels. A notable tradeoff is its weak large-block uncached memory read and write bandwidth. Qualitatively, the instance offers balanced resource density for general-purpose workloads, making it a suitable choice for web serving, database hosting, and software development tasks that benefit from local SSD storage without requiring specialized GPU or high-memory configurations.

    Workload Profiles

    0.44Score
    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.
