    Server Description

    A balanced general-purpose virtual machine featuring dedicated Intel Xeon processors and integrated local SSD storage for reliable everyday workloads.

    General PurposeStorage & Database

    Microsoft Azure D8d_v5 is an x86_64 general-purpose virtual machine from the DDv5 family, running on Microsoft Hyper-V. It is equipped with an Intel Xeon 8370C processor operating at 2.8 GHz, delivering 8 dedicated vCPUs across 4 physical cores. The hardware configuration includes 32.0 GB of RAM and a bundled 307 GB local SSD, with no integrated GPU. Benchmark evaluations place the server in the average tier for most operations, including a Geekbench multi-core score of 6177.0 and a static web serving throughput of 12.33 GB/sec, though multi-threaded bzip3 decompression performance is relatively weak. This resource profile offers qualitative cost efficiency by combining balanced memory-to-CPU ratios with built-in local storage. It is designed for workloads such as database operations, static web serving, and general-purpose applications.

    Workload Profiles

    0.62Score
    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.
