    Server Description

    An x86_64 virtual machine with balanced compute, memory, and local storage for general-purpose workloads and database operations.

    General PurposeStorage & Database

    Microsoft Azure D8d_v4 is an x86_64 general-purpose virtual machine from the DDv4 family, running on the Microsoft Hyper-V hypervisor. It is configured with an Intel Xeon 8272CL processor operating at 2.6 GHz, providing 8 dedicated vCPUs across 4 physical cores. The hardware profile includes 32.0 GB of RAM and 307 GB of local storage, with no integrated GPUs. Performance benchmarks place this server in the average tier for most operations, including a Geekbench multi-core score of 4751.0 and a Redis SET throughput of 7.06 million operations per second. However, it exhibits weaker performance in compression tasks, with single-threaded gzip compression falling into the bottom quartile. The balanced vCPU-to-RAM ratio and local storage make it suitable for web serving, database operations, and general-purpose workloads requiring fast local scratch space.

    Workload Profiles

    0.467Score
    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.
